I've got the SW7 and NW2 last year and I'm fully satisfied. I would like to say that the quality is the same as ATLAS Gold Series or LL Proto 2000. I use them in a multitraction with a LL GP9 and a Lenz 100 system. All three are sound equiped and the Quantum sound decoder is state of the art! If...
Meanwhile I've got a picture and some answers from a German forum following also your ideas.
It seems that the grey part is a drill-template but where to place and for what?
The small parts on the bottom are sockets I think.
Meanwhile I've got a photo from the prototype of the #2026:
- no...
Just got a GP38-2 Life-Like (Missouri Pacific Line #2026). The locomotive includes a lot of detail parts but unfortunately with the new box LL use there's no more picture or information how to apply the detail parts to match the prototype.
Does anybody know if the detail parts LL delivers with...
Hello Willis,
just have seen the postings about billboards. Below you'll find one of mine. At the moment I've only 2 but looking for more especially from the 70th. Unfortunately I've found only more from the 40th, 50th and 60th.
Here's a good adress for download...
I found a lot of new model railroad backdrops for H0 and G on the web page of my model railroad dealer. These are imports from the US.
Does anyone know the name or web-page of the vendor in the US? The only information I found was the name "JoWi".
If you want to see all, follow this link...

Now I've the LENZ Set 100 system and I'm totally satisfied. I've a...
Sorry for my very late answer, had not much time for model railroading last months... But now I'm back.
Yes, the building on the left is from Walthers Cornerstone series. It's the "Parkview Terrace" builidng.

Not finished yet but couln'd wait to show my latest progress on my layout. It always was one of my dreams to implement parts of an "Elevated" like can be seen in Chicago or NY.
So I took the Bachmann Spectrum Bus Station kit and did some heavy kit bashing. Finally I made 2 buildings from one...
Bachmann is following other manufacturers way to offer DCC decoder equiped locos:

Price for Athern's Challenger has been dramatically reduced before delivery. I've heard that Lionel who is in big trouble will deliver remnants of their Challengers for low price.
Here in Germany price for Athern's Challenger is fallen from 570,- Euro to 350,- Euro ($685 to $420,-). I've...
No but my German dealer gets every week some dozen blue box cars from the US. Can't stop buying them since quality for me is compatible to pricing ($6,- $ 10,-) and I love to mount the kits.
