Hey,
A smokin' Consolidation With Tender...
It's funny how they had to include " & Tender with smoke"... I had wondered how the smoke came from the tender... coal dust?
The "Twelve Wheeler" is $4 more while all the diesels are cheaper.
The "Auto Loader with 6 auto's" beneath the "Piggyback Flatcar Set"... Was there anything more to the Auto Loader than the freight car and the auto's?
I wish I saved mine before I gave it an autopsy.
John
I don't have a one track mind. It depends on the turn-out.
"I love your catenary!"
Is that a power-trip or just another pick-up line?
