Mine was a set also, an F-7 I belive, in the Bi-Centennial paint, but for the life of me I couldn't tell you who made it. Woke up Christmas of 76 with it running around the tree, the track was mounted on a piece of half inch ply cut to a 38" circle with linolium (spelling?) on the bottom so it would slide under the bed. That loco eventually went thru several paint schemes courtesy of spray bombs, it's death was a slow agonizing one with all those colors on it, broken couplers, bits of the shell missing, and then the motor died. It lived on as part of the scene and in derailment photos until I got the 4x8 up and running and it was replaced with an RS something or other, didn't like that one much though, and it went thru repaints too. But thats another story for a different day. [:)] <br /> <br />Chris
