Just imagine the reaction of your friends and neighbors when you add this baby to your collection!

I think the locals would object to me having a loop around the property.

I'd buy it but my rivet counting cronies would blather about it not being "prototypically correct"...or that I ran it at "non-prototypical speeds...(wink)
Small Layouts are cool! Low post counts are even more cool! NO GRITS in my pot!!!

I wonder what the shipping would be?

Could you convert it to three rail?

What's the minimum radius it can run on?

don't worry, from my experiences with Chinese trains that run on 2 rails, it will be in Wal-Mart for $79.98 by Christmas.

It's a bit too big to fit in my train room, but it certainly would look nice sitting in front of my house! Duty and taxes and stuff could be high, though. I wonder if I'd be able to smuggle it over the border without anyone noticing.

I'll take it!!!!! Do they have track?????[:p]
Actually of you have it shipped via "stand by" freight, you can save a lot of $$$
just you won't really know when it's going to ship out until it does.
