Been busy with school, finding a job(which I finaly did!) and playing with G scale in my garden. My indoor layout is still HO and been back dated to the wild west days. On the hunt for the D&RG bumblebee 4-8-0, one of the last engines I am missing that I had as a child. I have picked up boxed versions of the Silver Streak engine and caboose and a mint but unboxed ATSF GP20 with the MU2 drive system. She runs smoother and quieter than my Athearn blue box diesels. I have developed a fondness for the wild west stuff. Was gonna do that on my outdoor G scale line but its well along as a meter gauge German line. Cheers Mike
Still NT's, I have Aspergers.

Welcome back aboard the forum! Sounds like you're having a great time in both scales. It'll be great to see what you're doing in them.
Carpe Manana!

Hooray, for MU-2 TYCO. They can be decent runners.
Don't know anything about the D&RG bumblebee loco. Can you heist a picture off the 'net?
Glad you are back. Yes, pictures of your layouts, please.
Unspoken expectations are premeditated failures.
