Hello Mr. Warp. I might have a NOS powered A & B on
hand, Model Power. I'll poke around. The A is powered,
B is dummy.

Wow! I figured with all the TYCO guys here this would be easy. I've got lots of good PT motors and parts to fix a sick shark, but I'm willing to buy a couple of good ones too! Gotta be Nee York Central though.

I found 1 NYC shark last week, now I need one more.
Doesn't need to run. Just a good shell okay. Must be Tyco NYC though

When you find it, it won't run! I promise! I ended up
with two New Old Stock Tyco sharks in the last year.
Each one ran about 3 or 4 yards and then snapped
to a halt as grey smoke poured out the cab windows!
Both have been fitted to Model Power shark chassis
courtesy of Wildecoupe's lathe. I am looking forward,
anyways, to seeing your completed set.

| I'm a die hard! I have 2 powered AA sets of Midnight specials running with PT motors, took going through 18 motors to build 4 that would run, and run together. They run real sweet! you cant believe the difference until you see how nice they pull double headed. I'll post pictures if I can figure out how.

I found NYC shark #2, I now have it running with power torque.
Am now in the process of " shakedown runs" with both A units. OK so far, wish I could figure out how to post pics.

I'm not sure what equipment you're using to access the web. If it's a regular computer with Windows, you first have to resize the picture to a reasonable size. I typically use Microsoft Paint. You can open a picture in it by right clicking the file name in Windows Explorer and either choosing "Edit" or "Open With" then "Paint".
I usually choose to resize it in pixels with 800 being my normal width. Height will adjust itself accordingly.
When you're writing your post, the editor will show a set of icons by the title "Format:". The one on the far right looks like a little pocket digital camera. Hover over it and the description "Add Attachment" shows up. Click on it and you can browse to the picture you resized by clicking "Choose File". Choose the picture and then upload it by clicking "Upload File". Once it's uploaded, you have the option of inserting it into the post. If you don't downsize the picture, the upload will probably time out. If you do downsize it and the upload still times out, try again.
If you're using some other device, I don't know how it works, but say what it is and maybe someone will chime in.
Carpe Manana!
