mkblk: <br /> <br />I was wondering when someone would respond to this thread which I started in the spirit of idea exchange. <br /> <br />THANK YOU! <br /> <br />In the end, I guess it's all what you're into. I, like you, started with Lionel in the 40's as a child and continued with this until my pubescent years drove me to other urges. (For a while anyway.) <br /> <br />I laid model RRing aside for a significant while and then when I got back into it, now about 4 years ago, but into it with a FERVER. <br /> <br />I decided that, for me, I had to start from scratch again with the real thing. (And being an older middlle class, not poor but not rich type, decided that if I was going to do model RRing again, it had to be better than the Lionel my grandfather gave me when I was 5. <br /> <br />I don't really know what to tell you here but since your question relates to steam, all I can say is be prepared for a lot of work for the running time you get in return, but also be prepared for the satisfaction you get when that genuine steam powered locomotive runs down the track pulling that consist, and the pride you get when you have learned how to make (and possibly build) that sucker yourself. <br /> <br />PLEASE visit http://www.steamup.com/ <br /> <br />...and look into the discussion board there. Vance Bass is "'da man". <br /> <br />Regards and GOOD luck......WELCOME!
