I finished installing the grabs and weathering the C-liner 'b'.I'd show a pic or two but both the a and b are at a friend's house getting speed matched. When I tried running the two together the b was running twice as fast as the a.
On the other hand I just won an Ebay auction for a F-7 Phase1 a&b set. These will replace the Bachmann set. The Bachmann set is okay, but I think I can do better. The Stewart set has a bit better fidelity than the Bachmann engines. The new set also is a single headlight, non dynamic brake which will represent one of the earlier units that CN had.
I am looking for a Detail associates Stewart F-unit 'b' detail set for the grabs. I looked through my detail collection and found I have the set for the a but not the b. I also have to find a few other details for these as well.
