Nice FM's toptrain! My LOTW will be a new addition to my roster. Here is the Tyco Santa Fe C630 I picked from a fellow Minnesotan on 'the sit'e. This unit is in quite good condition, with the wheels still shiny and new looking. It came with it's original box, so it might not have ever been run. I probably won't run it, as I don't want to work on another Powertorque right now. I finally got all mine running in some way shape or form.
I quite like how nice this unit pairs up with my GP20.

Nice locos guys!
My LOTW offering is the HOLY GRAIL of Tyco C430's - the Pennsylvania RR C430 #4301!!!! I finally got this extremely rare locomotive, for just under 100 bucks, and it runs as good as it looks. WOW

"Power Torques for Fun and Profit," title of my new book.
"Split Gears and Cracked Tires: The AHM Way," my next book title.
That PRR Geepster is quite the get, never seen it Tyco. What is the vintage? MU or PT? Looks to run like a
top, too.

It features the bulletproof MU-2 motor, like all other Tyco locos of the 1960's. Such an incredible motor.

RP,
I was very happy to find one of these years ago maybe 10, and at the time not many knew if it was real or a custom. The one I have is the one that is in the Tyco refereance site by Mike Cook,who used to own this site, I think, They pulled the auction picture for their site. If you look it has a tiny bunny head looking dust bunny on the front of the loco. Mine came with Kadees. Yours is saweet!
