How about the LGB Club models? I have never been a fan of the Forney engines, but the Sante Fe engine has REALLY cool colors! I think it will look great outside. I also like the Santa Fe Box Car. I am patiently awaiting the paperwork from the LGB Club to order those two items.

Regards,

John

Jack, I had them up at a high speed, and they had a decent amount of rolling stock behind them.

Jack, isn't that the truth.

I talked to my mom after I printed the info out, and she favors the DR set over the PRR's. She told me since I favor the PRR so much that I may see the PRR set and the add on coach around July for my Birthday. Keep up the good work at LGB.

By the way, you like the sig pic I have of the F7's?

Colin,
Thanks for the kind words. My Grandfather worked on the Philadelphia Terminal Division of the PRR so I can definately relate to your preferences!
Two things in the model railroad industry that always sell well-
1- anything wearing the Santa Fe warbonnet
2-Anything sporting a Keystone! [:D]

Jack, you have a huge fan of LGB. They really know what I like. Now I just have to save all the money up to get the stuff. The first thing I would like to get is the PRR starter set, and the add on coach, then the hoppers.

After that I will try to get my hands on the DR Freight set.
