QUOTE: Originally posted by GaryA Is there any lettering on the bottoms of these locos? I think Lindbergh was made by Mehano in (former) Yugoslavia. The switcher looks like an SW900 to me. Gary

QUOTE: Indiana, PA ?!? That's almost in my old stomping grounds. I was born and raised in Charleroi (about 30 miles south of Pittsburgh on the Mon River). I know you can find lots of good advice and assistance from the model railroaders in Pittsburgh if not closer. And you just have to visit Bud's hobby shop -- that's A B Charles & Son on Liberty Avenue in Dormont -- there is none better anywhere. Chuck
