First of all, thanks to Brian for the awesome deal on this Athearn passenger set. I had the morning off school today, so I used it to clean the set up. Wiped all the cars down, cleaned some crud off the engines, and gave all the axles some fresh oil. It runs and looks great, so I thought I'd share some pics.

Nice Set Cheez. Now you have to get the other 2 cars to complete the set. You need the Baggage Car Athearn # 1789 and the Diner Car Athearn #1799. Total of 6 Cars. Carl

I always did like the early (pointless arrow) Amtrak scheme.
Nice set Cheez!

Looks sharp, for sure. I've been eying some of these online myself, but haven't decided whether to go any yet or not. Maybe later in the year.

Thanks for the comments! I'll have to keep my eyes open for the other cars. This is my first Athearn streamliner set, so I had no idea if there were more cars or not. I think the set as it is now is a good size for my layout though
