[quote]QUOTE: <i>Originally posted by LocoAnnie</i> <br /><br />Morning Captn, - New Bright locos carry 6 'C' cells in the tender, but it is possible to convert them to other battery options that aren't so much of a dead weight. These locos are no longer in production as far as I'm aware which is a shame, but at least the Christmas and holiday versions currently available are fine to pilage for spare parts for the older trainsets. Some of the newer Holiday & Xmas trainsets operate off track power and I've been meaning to get hold of one so I can evict the Elves and see if the mechanical parts can be used on the older locos. <br />My lovely mint Timberwood & Redwood RR locomotive (My Mum says I'm NOT allowed to cut it up to make something else from it) <br />[img]http://locomotiveannie.homestead.com/files/NewBright5.jpg[/img] <br /> <br />Cheers, <br /> <br />Annie <br />[/quote] <br /> <br />Yes, that is a fine looking locomotive, pity its no long being made. [:(] I would prpbably subdue the colors for a more "industrial" look. <br /> <br />Most I have found on e-bay have been with no tender, I can't imagine anyone selling it without one...I guess for parts. <br /> <br />I think you would be pleased with a scientific loco. I promise I'll have pics on the way. I'm meeting some friends at the Old Engli***ea Room in Kingsville today (funny, you wouldn't think I was talking about South Texas, that last sentence sounds like I'm visiting a part of THE EMPIRE!) <br /> <br />Thanks, <br /> <br />Capt Carrales
