That was my third set(got it on my 10th birthday) - ran it for about 9 months and then decided to run it set along with my Silver Spike Amtrak set under the tree - hooked up my dads 1044 and forgot this is a DC only engine and fried it. Still run the pennsy hopper! Thanks for the memory - Happy Thanksgiving!

No problem buddy, the silver spike was another favorite, but I didn't get that to years later. This set was the only DC thing I have so forever destined to run it's own loop.

Do you still run it? Looks like a nice starter set.I have an 2001 F-150 crew cab and love it also have 2000 Transam w/RAMAIR
