Both engines are BLI DCC with Paragon Sound, for those interested and/or wondering. Both are still waiting to be run

I’ve never been Tony, but now I’m thinking I need to go!

@Rico

If you like history, castles and just a down right old fashioned atmosphere go and take a look. Stay away from London, Liverpool (unless you liked the Beatles) etc as they are just more big cities. Well you'd have to go to London and see the touristy stuff, Tower Bridge, Big Ben, Buck Palace etc - but thats a day tour, then you can get out into the country and experience all the good stuff like .......TRAINS and BRIDGES and TUNNELS and stuff!! Not to mention the best Fish and Chips in the world

Venture up to Scotland and across to Wales as well - if for no other than the accents and of course Ireland if you can.

Glenfinnan Viaduct, Scotland
If you've seen any Harry Potter movies, then you've seen this Viaduct.

Here's a pair of Kato SD40-2's that run great, But Kato got the font wrong on the cab number. These are known as snoot noses, with the nose measuring 123".

Looks like it needs a little TLC.

Tony I think he’s referring to the details that go into the holes.
What make is it? I have a Minitrix 4-6-2 from years ago.

@Rico

Ahh, thanks - I never noticed them, or paid any attention to them if I did. In that case - apologize @KriegslokBR52.

As for the make, I don't know. I think it was one I was sent by "someone" some time ago, as I don't recall buying it from anywhere.
