    Hi All!
    Here is the result of my mating the Trix U28C chassis with a Bachmann 8-40C body. The chassis was modified so the entire chassis was the same width from front to back. The body had issues. It was part of a collection I bought, and was broken in several places. I managed to piece it back together so it is presentable. However th railings were a nightmare.
    It is lettered for my home road, the Delaware and Atlantic. I have more Trix chassis and a Bachmann 8-40CW body....

    The engine looks great, Bruce. I can’t see where you did any repairs. Excellent work!

    In my experience photos usually magnify any small imperfections. The engine looks really good to my eyes.
