nice score Buss! hopefully you can get it to work.
My AOTW is this Tyco Operating Piggyback unloader. Haven'd had one of these since I was like 10.

Ooh, I got one of those last year. Works very nicely, although non-Tyco trailers have to be modified to work with the short forks.

Flying DeLoreans! I'll hang it over my layout when I build it some day.

Love those DeLorean's. My AOTW is a couple of trailers for flat cars. Or for use on a layout parked at a building. Either way.

Nice Trailer Unloader. When I was ten I wanted to build these insanely long trains and
I still love the chunky, low scale look of Tyco. My AOTW are those cheesy plastic loads
for gondolas that are supposed to resemble gravel and coal. I had numerous gondolas,
but few loads, but several different guys on the TF hooked me up right quick. This is
my cheesy plastic load collection. Thanks, guys! This train ran for four hours, earlier this
week, and never derailed once!

That, and the layout is the El Paso Model Train Club.
Train is mine.
That street cleaner is sweet!
Thank you for clarification on the German "fortgeschrittenen Modellbahner. "
I was thinking it mean "forgetful model rail bangers," sort of like CRS
syndrome.

Lokempfanger = Loco engine
Handegler = hand held
Anyway its a DCC device & Lenz was the one that helped Bachmann get into DCC
