I'm gonna keep running my same old trustworthy rod engines...
I have a BLI C-16 2-8-0, a Bachmann C(whatever) 2-8-0 outside frame, a Bachmann 2-6-0, a Bachmann 2-4-4-2 that I did a 'John Allen' on and converted it to an 0-4-4-2...
that I use for the MOW train, I have a Bachmann 2-6-2 that will be for yard use....I have about a dozen locomotives total, including 2 Bachmann 4-6-0s, an extra Bachmann 2-8-0 OF, a Bachmann Forney 2-4-4 converted to a 'tender dragger', my scratch/bashed 2-6-0 cab forward, that I dropped,
my scratch built 2-8-0 that I also dropped,
.......and an MMI K27 that I'm selling
....it's always been way too 'persnickitty' for me and I'm not doing a 22" radius
so I'm getting rid of it.......
.....all of my locomotives handled the 4% grades in the past really well....
....I only run 3 cars plus a caboose or combine on my consists, and my cars have no added weight.....
........thanx for asking and thanks to everybody that stopped by......
...I'm really jazzed about this version of the G&D Ry. .....I can already 'see' the scenery and can't wait to bring it to life...
.......
......see ya.......

Carpe diem!
