I have given some thought as to what trains will be pulled by what Locomotives. I currently own... 1) Bachmann 4-6-0 Ten- Wheeler that that cam with the "Gold Rush Set." This is going to be my "trohpy Loco" that is deocrated in a light blue color (colour) scheme. 2) Bachmann 2-6-0 mini-Mogul- Will serve as a road engine until I can purchase a a 10th Anneversry 4-6-0 Ten Wheeler at which time this locomotive will be relegated to switch engine and light road work. "Black Industrial" paint scheme. Numbers N&M RR #90 I am saving for... 1) Bachmann 10th Anneversry 4-6-0 Ten- Wheeler - This will also have the "Black Industrial" paint scheme and will handle all the mainline work. 2) I may slowly save for a more expensive Bachmann Loco, but that will be done gradually as I save for and build that fence I talk so much about and remain frustrated with since I'm about 11 months from having the money and because my contractor is in Iraq! Rolling Stock I need to have when the line opens... 1) Former Bachmann White Pass Passenegr Coach renumbered #200 and renamed "Del Sol." 2) Bachmann Caboose # 53 3) Will purchase a Bachmann Box Car (SHOULD I GO WITH THE 20 Ft or THE FULL SIZED?) 4) Will purchase a Bachmann Flat Car of any size. 5) Two more passenger coaches (combine and obersvation) 6) Some coal hoppers (maybe eventually three) This should give me enough rolling stock to have an operating railroad. After this set of purchases I can literally take any direction I choose. I think it is important to have this minimum number of rolling stock before beginning. I am also hoarding track...
