I have made a choice. I didn't wait like I thought I was going to. I had to order some other stuff and I was affraid the offer that I saw would expire or would sell out. So, what did I purchase? The only difference is I purchased a different road numberthen what you see below.

The level of detail this engine had over the Day Light, the sound I heard from my two other broadway limited engines I just purchased made me have faith in this engines sound, recommended minimum radius 18 in which is less then the Day Lights 22 recommened, the ability to select the smoke stacks and change it, I can add a smoke system later if I really have to have it and the deal I got just made it to good to pass up. The fact that it has been converted to oil use was another reason it met the requirements and was the chosen one.
Will I be happy with it? I think I will. I was very pleased with the other two Broadway Limited Engines I purchased. I was actually surprised with what I got for the money.
It should be here maybe this week or next week. If I am not out of town on business I will post pictures of it. Maybe even a lame little You Tube video for those interested.
I want to thank everyone for the advice they gave, the knowledge they shared and the experinces you have with your own engines. It made the choice easier and I was much more informed. Did this engine ever run in the area I am modeling, dont think it did. Does that bother me? Not at all.
