    Yes, those are pretty unique and interesting I thought.
    I also picked up some 8000HP diesels (yellow) and an 8" upsetter forge for my flat cars. The detailing is top notch IMHO. I got all of them from www.multiscale.digital. They have all kinds of loads for flat cars in N scale.

    I have and they run very nice. My track isn't too technical... run 14" radius at the tightest but I have a kato double crossover which tends to show shortcomings.

    Got these off Fleece-bay for 180.00 after shipping and taxes.

    Put'em on a test track (Don't have a layout yet) and there aren't enough o's in smooth.

    Very pleased.

    Another Ebay Snag for 80 bucks. I think the seller mistakenly put a buy it now price on it and that's exactly what I did. Just the municipal building retails for that much!

    Well.... that is very interesting. 4 locos for 45 bananas each ain't to shabby in todays market. These babies used to sell for 40 Simoleans in the late 80's - 90's when I got my two Rio Grande. And... yes... I found them to be very smooth until the main axle gears cracked. Fortunately North West Short Line (NWSL) had developed low profile axles with better quality gear for replacement. I Still have my Arnold/Roco version... to go with the newer Atlas S2.

    The last 3 packs, Kato roundhouse feeder conversion sets.
    Now, I can wire the remaining roundhouse/engine house tracks
    and NOT have to worry about the turntable providing electrical connections!
    Actually thinking of removing the brass contacts on turntable bridge. So I don’t
    short out, as turntable rotates.

    Classic Metal Works Mini metals Rio Grande maintenance truck.
    Just the truck and 2 spruces, in a plastic bag! Figured that the black
    parts included, were hirail wheels. Does anyone have instructions
    for this specific vehicle?? I didn’t get any, and not sure if it came with any!
    Would greatly appreciate if anyone could send a copy of instructions!!
    Again, if it came with any!
    Thanks.

    I found this at a shop in Vegas. Got a little damage in transport home but is repairable. I will be changing the signs, adding doors, supports for the front awning and wallah, I have a new cafe.
