was rummaging under layout and found this box it brought back memories of times long-ago the next photo are the contents of you recognize them then you have been modeling a long time I will give some hints they are metal and use KaDee number4's and the trucks are sprung. I put these together in the early 60's.

Looks like I am starting this off.

This my newest locomotive and one I have been waiting for for awhile. It is Pennsylvania-Reading Seashore Lines B6sb 0-6-0 by Broadway Limited. Here it is pulling some 40 ft wood reefers past the station.

[Image: iAFFKz3.jpg]

I have tested it and it runs well. I am agravated some because the smoke generator is giving me issues. I turn it off with the switch under the loco but it is staying on. I am able to turn it off with F7 on the controller. I will emailing Broadway Limited on Monday. This is diappointing since I have been waiting for so long for a PRSL steam locomotive. This is the first one I know of since IHC went out of business 25 plus years ago.

Hi all,

We just saw the move F1 with Brad Pitt the other day.
Worn out plot, but fun action shots.  Did a good job of explaining tire choice and wear to the audience.
Not really a movie that is memorable, though.  We went on the cheap seats day.

Better movies:
Ferrari
Ford v. Ferrari
