I agree. It's probably a good idea to start a new thread - especiallly since this one was originally started nearly 6-1/2 years ago.

Time...It marches on...without ever turning around to see if anyone is even keeping in step.
i see ur a big CSX guy i live in Corbin KY which was built around CSX and KFC so ive got plenty of CSX and of course both layouts have a KFC on them...lol..i recently bought 2 brand new in box Spectrum Dash CSX engines for $60.00 shipping included in the price
LOL. No foul, just start a new one. It's good to see that the old threads aren't just wasting away and someone still reads them.

Driline Why did you resurrect a 3 year old DEAD thread? It would have been better to start over. Modellers engine rosters change month to month. Crandell can you lock this thread? I'll start over with a new one if need be.

But no, wait, what is this? A brand new Proto 2000 E-7A with sound just arrived two days ago! CB&Q #9917B. I got it to pull one of the Empire Builders (by Walthers) that I'm assembling.
Great, I just ordered a PCM Y6b and will probably also order the Brass Big boy from them. I am finding myself taking all the older engiens, even if I had converted them to DCC, and replacing them with the latest sound version that comes out.

Would you like pictures? I have around $15,000.00 more or less. tied up in my engines and rolling stock. If you want pictures they can be provided:
This is one of (3) engine areas.
The Brass are in the roundhouse I am shooting over.
Some people collect engines, I have seen over 200 in one collection ALL Brass. Sorry but the Life Like crowd has a problem grasping the size of a collection when someone wants one.
And PLEASE do not pick on BOZO he was a hero to my kids

Everytime this thread comes up, I post my latest additoions. In this case it would be an AB set of Broadway Limited F7s painted in NP freight pine tree scheme, and an undecorated F7B unit. I have been very disapointed in the sound. The prime mover doesn't bog down like a real one does on acceleration, and even though the locomotive clearly sports Nathan 5 chime horns, the sound unit is a wabco honker! One would think a company selling their products on the "sound" would be careful to make certain the sound matches the unit they put it in.

We buy most of our engines using our birthday money, my brothers birthday just happens to be a week before the biggest train show here so that helps a lot. Almost all the engines are Athearns. Hope you like the roster.
Do you want to know WHY the price of things are HIGH, LOOK AT THIS LIST!!! If you are selling decoders you could retire on the units in this thread.

poorflickAlmost all of mine are HO. I have close to 100 engines. I hardly know anything about them. I recently inherited them. I love trains but I am not very well educated on them. I have been looking around to find more info. Any suggestions?
edkowalI don't comprehend how you guys can possibly need the numbers of engines that you do. Some of you own more motive power that some Class 1 railroads. With a total mileage in the units, you have no need for that many engines. Most of them must be gathering dust.
wow i bearlly have anything
