Hello from SW Washington

[icicle]

Just wanted to stop in and say hello to all of you.

I have been into HO gauge for few years when I was younger(17) had a nice table with two main lines and a switching yard, then I had to move and tore down my setup and boxed it all up. Now I'm 38 and have a small apartment, so I decided to break out my train and set it back up.

I don't have room for a table setup, so I'm going to be going with a shelf setup along the ceiling of my bedroom.

Now for the bad news, I opened my train box the other night and two of my engines have damage to them, my SD45 UP#3600 lost both of the couplers and took a little damage to the body, like lost the front and back grab irons, the plastic steps. and my Santa Fe #23 also lost it's coupler and no body damage.

this one Survived unharmed for two moves

And the good news is they all still run.

Hello and welcome aboard. At least they still run. You should be able to find a way to fix them up, but if not there are plenty of friendly people here that can help ya out.

Thanks for the welcome.

I'm going to hobby shop in the next few weeks to see if they can hook me up on parts.
