The wallet won.
Yes it would have been nice, but seeing my working week has been cut to 4 day's, I have to listen to my wallet.I was hoping you were going to say, So I picked up a few hours of overtime and bought both!
Only working 4 days a week gives you one more day for model railroading.Yes it would have been nice, but seeing my working week has been cut to 4 day's, I have to listen to my wallet.
Yes, I do like the "Demo" colour scheme, would certainly brighten up any freight train, and it seems Bachmann are the only ones who made this model.Only working 4 days a week gives you one more day for model railroading.
That Electro Motive diesel is definitely an eye catcher however the CN car sure adds some color.
Intermountain and Rapido produced it as well.Yes, I do like the "Demo" colour scheme, would certainly brighten up any freight train, and it seems Bachmann are the only ones who made this model.
What people don't realise is that this colour scheme was only applied to one half of the car, the other side is plain grey, so maybe I should get a second car.
That's how I got to where I'm at.... very slowly!Nothing of note. Some lumber to finish the benchwork for my layout and maybe some track. Money's pretty tight for me right now, so I'll have to buy all the track I need a little bit at a time.
Really, I did look, but could only find Bachmann versions, I think it's either Athearn or Walthers are selling them on their websiteIntermountain and Rapido produced it as well.
Here is the Intermountain version, don't know if it's still available.Really, I did look, but could only find Bachmann versions, I think it's either Athearn or Walthers are selling them on their website
