Thanks, Kevin

Well, I'm going to be able to join you all with the old-timer steamers I bought an 8004 Rock Island and Peoria, along with a 9559, 9560, & 9561 passenger cars that go with it.

When you got one foot in the grave and the other on a banana peel one must not challenge the risk potential. 

I understand completely!  You be careful and take care of yourself!

What a cool-lookin' "Beep!"  Did it come from RMT that way, or did you do it yourself?

By the way, I own six "Beeps."  It just happened....

 

 

 
It came that way from RMT. I have two and when run together they have better pulling power.
 

Wow, I had no idea.  I got lucky with four of mine, two limited-run Public Service Electric and Gas of New Jersey (an uncle used to work for them) Beeps plus the caboose, and two U.S.M.C Beeps, again with a matching caboose.

And you're absolutely right, put two or more together and they'll pull anything!

When you hit the right buttons it mimics the Roadrunner cartoon beep.

 

I took the lazy man's way out, I bought a Lionel "Diesel Sounds" boxcar!

Good news on your Forth of July opening!  Bet it's not soon enough, huh?

 

I doubt that I will be signing up to run for a good while.  When you got one foot in the grave and the other on a banana peel one must not challenge the risk potential. Whistling

Did someone say Beep ? One of the first ones with TMCC that John Z. made at ERR. When you hit the right buttons it mimics the Roadrunner cartoon beep.

Looks like we may be reopening on the 4th of July.

The fireman is perched on Darlene's running board, as he chats with a few other W&A (Wappacomo & Allegany) workers, outside the Moorefield engine stall.
