  8. did I mention freight cars [:D]

seriously though, I need some freight cars to really build up my fleet this Christmas, lol

I already know what Santa is bringing… I had a conference with him several days ago. It seems I’ve been big into themed Christmas presents for the past few years. A couple years ago was my MBTA Christmas. Last year was my Claremont-Concord Railroad Christmas, and this year I’ll be getting an RS3 with paints decals and a decoder to turn it from N&W to LVRC!

Well, for my loco I’ll take a GG-1. 1:1 scale of course.

I’ll take a permanently-coupled 5-car passenger set as my rolling stock

And the whole Northeast Corridor as my structure…

[:-^]

Hmm: [:-^]

Okay, for the locomotive, a brass SP MT-2 4-8-2

Rolling stock: A 3-unit articulated SP “Daylight” diner

Structure: A 120’ turntable (and space to install it).

Oh: HO scale of course. Though 1:1 wouldn’t be too bad, would it?

Tom [:P]

Would that run on both DCC/DC? [:P]

It’s an odd sensation, but I have no list of “just gotta have” items this year. Is being content with what I already have sufficient grounds for having to return my Model Railroader Membership Card?

My wife told me to pick up something that I really want at the Belleville train show last weekend so I got myself a Intermountain VIA Rail FP9A, a Rapido VIA Rail steam generator car and a Smokey and the Bandit Trans Am 1/32 scale slot car. I like shopping for myself, lol.

Well, let’s see:

loco: SW1 by Walthers or in brass; I’m not picky… Prefer undecorated.

rolling stock: Stock car lettered for GTW

Building: Slaughter house/packing plant kit with stockyards!

Can you guess what one of my upcoming projects is going to be? Merry Christmas everyone!

Same here-- my wife and I asked each other what we want for Christmas and we’re both still scratching our heads… maybe I’ll get her a head-scratcher.

1: BLI NW2 or SW7 with sound/dcc in BN. (I have an SP one and am impressed, I just one a BN switcher)

2: Accurail partially enclosed autorack

3: a ready-built Turntable capable of handling an AB set of F-units.

I know I’m getting a BN Big Sky Blue (GN patch) GP20 with sound/dcc. I’m gonna try to make #1 happen for myself by selling the SP NW2.

Merry Christmas Peoples.

  1. A Union Pacific Steam engine(I already got electric and diesel.)Edit:I really don’t care about the specific engine. I can’t find any steam engines nowadays.

  2. Union Pacific Tender.(It would go well with the steam engine.)

  3. A good sized clapboard or brick station(my old station is small and can’t keep up with the growth.)

  1. Brass Missabe SD-M (But id settle for a 2-8-8-4 :slight_smile:
