I have been getting into Pennsy pasenger stuff as well, For now I think im going to focus on steam passenger trains, but as far as Deasile goes, im sure most any 1st generation EMD F-units will work as well as Alco, Baldwin and Frank Morse, I'm thinking if i go deasile i will probably get a ABA set of the life like Proto 2000(p2k) Frank Morse C-liner and a A-B-B-A set of there 6-axle unit, im not sure the offical name of those loco's but there really cool, to me they kinda look like an old truck. <br /> And just a suggestion from personall experiance, I recomend you try to stay away from Bachman, and some of the other lower grade makers, I recomend you go with Athearn Gennises, Atlas, Kato, Broadway Limited, and Life Like P2K. <br /> You just end up with a better model for your money. You get better details and you get better running equipment, also if you get Athearn Ready-to-run I suggest replacing the factory moter with a can-moter, With can moter's you get smother operation.
