Both locomotives are Command Control, even the small switcher.
It has a TAS unit and it works great.

Merry Christmas To All



The Santa Train was a big hit with youngsters and oldsters alike, especially when it was stopped so they could take a piece of candy from a hopper that was decorated with garland and wreaths. That little docksider ran like a champ. [:D]



Looks like break time is almost up, have to get back to the kitchen. [C=:-)]
Enjoy the day with family and friends, and may God Bless. [^]

One of my presents so far.. A 60's vintage Milwaukee sawzall!!! Im going to restore it for use...

The cord is junk, but it runs fine, all it needs is a good cleaning. Im painting it hammerite silver, and sticking to the same paint scheme, im also repacing the brushes.



Ugh, 40 year old grease!!!



The internals (for later reference)

I got NEW LGB boxcar, will post pics of it later. I have to go buy 2 memory cards, one for trains, and the other one for my sister. I got the Ralph Lauren shirts I asked for, the Ralph Lauren Black cologne, a soldering gun, smoke fluid, and a new PRR Tshirt. I am really happy. By the way, those F7s were my christmas present, and I got them early. I have $680 and counting!!! I can see so much LGB behind those F7s. I will try to have video up on here, not making any promises.

Buckeye, imagine what it would do to his back. Chief, are you sure there is enough funding to start the layout? Maybe with the gift certificates, you could get Todd's Train Depot to build you a layout. The would finish quickly, I know I would. Remember, do not hurt your back trying to lean down to acess the transformers.
