My railraoding terminology is not good. What are the big metel steel plate shrouds mounted in front next to boiler used for. To direct wind flow? I think these are cool looking
Why no talk of Athearns new Challenger. I just purchased this nice steam locomotive #3710 and love it. I figured there should be lots of new post about it. Lots of these are in stock.

No. I tried. There are no holes in top of trailer for pins to line up. So I purchaed some Kato containers to make this happen. The KATO holes line up perfectly with the Athearn. KATO containers are magnitized so I will have to figure a way to magnitize the Athearn for best results (no shifting)
Other than pins lining up with holes, what are you guys using to secure the Athearn containers. I know the Kato containers have magnets built in to prevent shifting.
Athearn states these are easily stackable, but I have no pin holes in trailer roof to line up with pins. What is the trick to get these to stack without moving or sliding off. These are the JB Hunt 53' Monon containers.
I think maybe these were designed to be stacked on top only. Writing on...
I think this will be Ford's year to win a championship. They have not won one in last 7 years.
I love Martinsville...I have allways wanted to go to that one.
