Great O scale layout & great runs also. The Passenger train is the Golden State Limited that ran on both the Southern Pacific & Rock Island till April 10,1968 when it was discontinued.
@PhilBender612Ай бұрын
Yes, I switched out the SP E-units power I usually use to pull the Golden State, with steam power, a SP 2-8-0 even though SP never used steam power. Some of the Golden State cars are SP, Rock Island and two are Pennsy cars as the PRR was involved in the beginning of the Golden state.

Ya. Its not really an engine. I don't know if you've seen one of these before, this is a piece of maintenance equipment used to pack down the ballast rock around the railroad ties to prevent them from moving.

I'd like to buy one of these, but it seems Command Control is the only way to operate it. I don't use CC and am wondering if some modifications can be made so that it can operate old school fashion.
@PhilBender6127 ай бұрын
Yeah unfortunately it kind of requires command control. Either tmcc or legacy base with a cab1 or 2. You actually have to turn the dial on the cab 1 to get the boom to rotate in place and then press a button on the key pad to release a drop of the smoke fluid. It's a really cool accessory and works well.
