Hopefully this link will help: http://www.trains.com/ctt/default.aspx?c=a&id=599

One thing about trains: It doesn't matter where they’re going. What matters is deciding to get on.

According to this site's magazine index and my somewhat foggy memory - it was May 2006, pg. 46. Motorizing a Rail Zeppelin by Philip K. Denslow.

I got one last week too -the all-silver version. This one would let me turn up some tabs and essentially drop in a gang-crew engine. Have to look for one. But I think I'll run it with the wind-up key for a while - I'm going to give it to myself for Christmas.
