I've spent my whole life living in Wisconsin, so I never really got to see any real Espee trains, however growing up reading Model Railroader in...
Hmm, judging by the only blurry enlarged close up picture I saw, they look similar to FVM wheels in their profile, however I can't be sure. But...
Well way back when the Kato Cal Zephyr cars started coming out I was in college and not really buying much in trains (on account of being poor),...
That's some really nice work there. I spent some time railfanning the BN along the WI/MN boarder in the mid-90s, it's a fantastic spot to watch...
I don't own one of these bridges (just got a Walther's double track truss, still putting it together), but yeah, those plates do look a bit big,...
Yeah, I just got a new Atlas 8-40C with sunshades...now I don't know how to store it! Since I don't have room for a layout, most of my stuff gets...

Hmm...I got two Kato E8s earlier this year...might have to look into these. I'm new to DCC, and I've never used MRC decoders before, so I'm...
