Whats going on? I thought I would post a couple pictures from my trip to Durango, Colorado, where I got to ride the Durango & Silverton Narrow Gauge Rail Road. The trip lasted about two hours, because it being winter time and the train is not able to make the full trip because of the snow...

No. Maybe if I worked with HO stuff. The details they "add", are they the same detail parts that come with Kato HO locomotives in the box? Or are they additional details that you can buy off Kato or some other manufacturer? The only thing they do for N Scale locos is sell them with Decoders...

Hey, thanks for trying. I might just have to paint custom paint some. I do hate stripping locomotives of their factory paint though. I have talked to Intermountain about buying unpainted shells, but they wont sell them unless they are a replacement for a broken one. Everyone should do what Atlas...

Hey, I got one just like it. I love the paint on those. I have to get my hands on the other two.

ok, I get it. thanks for the info. If you ever do another N scale thingie, i'll deffinetly check it out. Ive been looking to get four or five N scale IM SD40T-2s in the Rio Grande paint. But I dont want to pay 90 dollars each. Thats the price Im seeing at all these net stores. and the local...

Hey, thank you for the info. Where is his thread located? The one where he does his offerings and stuff. I am interested in getting N scale locomotives (since thats pretty much all I buy because I detail and sometimes custom paint them).

hey, i went to the river walk yesterday. its pretty cool. Lets just say I love being single. As far as Albuquerque, you can visit the historic US 66. the downtown area is really nice. the old part of town has lots of neat things. And you can see the RailRunner. I need a RailRunner locomotive...

Whats all this group buys thingie yall got going on? I see a lot of happy customers. Someone please fill me in :D

I wish I didnt have to install the grab irons on my N Scale locos. Those look really good. I love the wide cab units. They look more...powerful I guess.

I like the Kato couplers, but Micro Trains is what most people prefer. I personally love mixing them, since ive never experienced any problems. short looks better than the longer coupler, and ive never had any problems with any curve.

it costs just as much as my Xbox 360 did :eek:

lol @ us Texans. I personally love Ebay. Sure, its not perfect and you do have problems here and there. But most of the time you get a very good deal. My LHS sells the N Scale Kato AC4400CW for 105 dollars, AKA retail. Even with five or six dollars S/H, I can get them for around 65 dollars. Only...

I sure hope so. Athearn has so much stuff in HO and not a lot in N. I wish Athearn would do atleast half as much in N as they do in HO

23 here. But I dont really model because of lack of space. And plus I rather spend my time detailing and customizing a locomotive. I just pretty much collect locomotives. I dont belong to anymore clubs because I just recently moved to a new town. But once I find an N Scale club here, I will try...

23 right here

awesome. I might get one, u know, just for display purposes, since I model N. I hope they do an N Scale version someday, since OVerland cancelled their GEVOs in N.

Ive never seen one, but I hear the detail on those Tower 55 products is outstanding. do they live up to the hype?

thats really cool that u got back into the hobby after so long. I am mostly a collector, for I do not have space to build a layout. and I am new to the San Antonio area and I have not done much research on clubs and such. Actually, I do have about seven steam locomotives. But diesels are a...

That red and black looks really cool. Its too bad the Mexicans sold Ferromex to the Japanese.

u know, I got into model railroading the exact opposite a lot of yall got into it. I never had a train set around the christmas tree. my dad never had a layout. Nothing like that. I guess now that Im older, I am kind of going back and living that part of my childhood that I did not have. When I...
