I figured it was a New year and high time that I joined a Railroad Forum and start learning more about my Hobby. I've been around for more years than I care to admit. Been a modeler since the 60's in all forms. My Children were not interested in Trains or my Layout so that waned so I could concentrate on them and the things that they enjoyed. Now that we are empty nesters, I've gotten into my trains again buying a few things the "I" like without regard to what Railroad I would like to model. Most of my stuff is New York Central or Santa Fe, and a pretty even split. Being that I am Retired USAF, I have an interest in the WWII Troop Trains and I have a few Walthers Cars that were sold as a set and like them a lot. I tend to buy Ready-to-Roll Stock like some of the New Athearn cars or the Bachman Silver Series that I've had good luck with. My locos have been everything from the basic Bachman stuff for my Grand Son, to Proto 2000, Athearn Genesis, and Bachman Spectrum for what I use on the layout. I have the desire for a DC, Sound equipt, Steam Locomotive to grab the attention of my Grand Son. So far he loves what he sees and I want to think that he enjoys the Steam more than the Diesel Electrics. Keep in mind that this little boy is just 13 months old! But hewill sit there in his high chair and not move or tough anything! I figure that if he like this, that I would support his desire and his interest in this. With all of this in mind, I think I like what I see in the Broadway Limited line of Sound equipt Locomotives. So how do these units measure up and run? Chris
