now my surprise
Bachmann Auto-Train set with the book on it's history!


closer view of book

I'd really like to get the couplers fixed on the passenger cars

EDIT: would also like a replacement AWD since the original chassis had Zinc Rot

yes this the same loco as mine

Big time score, Ben, that is a beauty. Even has the hard to find
auto transport vans. Are you saying your loco rotted out?

Athearn made a BB version, too.

My SOTW will be duo images of a duo of diesels. Here we see a Santa Fe F9 and C430, proudly wearing the warbonnet and freight bonnet schemes...
All by Tyco of course!

I don't believe I was aware Tyco used the freight scheme on the C420.

The F is MU-powered, isn't it?
