Just got my new C&O RSD 4/5 - bought via ebay from a dealer - off my front step today. This is a neat looking engine with plenty of detail (for me at least)! Anybody have one to say how well they run (conventional version)? How's the horn sound - a pre-programmed crossing burst (like Williams), or will it sound off as long - or as short - as I hold down the horn button? I gotta ask, as I STILL haven't gotten off my rump to clean off the benchwork and get the track set back up.
That's 4 new engines now in the past year, and I'm still procrastinating the cleanu....er, "shift" of debris from the benchwork to someplace else.
Moving tip: If you're moving to a (potentially) smaller house, get rid of all the excess junk FIRST. At least dump the non-train, non-gun, non-tool related junk.....
There is only one way to clean up your stuff. Get rid of everything you didn't use the past year or don't have plans with the next year. Stuff locked away labelled "it can be usefull someday" or "Probably I'll need it next year" is junk. Only things you really have a purpose for in the year to come is allowed to stay.
You can't emagine what sorts of junk and rubbish one tends to store over the years.. Only for the "what if" moment which is very unlikely to come and if it comes, the memory doesn't recall the stuff you saved for it.
