[quote]QUOTE: <i>Originally posted by nslakediv</i> <br /><br />Thats all I used to run until I switched over to DCC, the old open frame motors just didnt seem to convert well, so i made them all dummies. They are not bad looking models though, just add a plow, brass airhorns and a firecracker antenna and they look as good as a atlas, proto or kato, of course always weather. <br />[/quote] <br />I have I think seven BB locomotives. I am actually having trouble getting a Digitrax DH123D decoder to fit inside an Athearn GP38-2. Whenever I put it in, something either pushes the front truck so it "rears" up like a horse, or something seems to be in contact with the drive chain. Any ideas? <br />Thanks, <br />Reed
