Last night after a few bottles of Coors I ordered Bachmann K27 464 from Ridge Road Station [:O]
Anyone here already have a K? I need to know what type of Kadee couplers to get for it to connect upto my LGB car’s.
Boy Brian, do you even have any track to run it on or is it going to be a dusty shelf queen? Don’t let the missus see the bill for that one! Then you’ll have to get a bunch of 1:20 cars to go along with it. No idea on the kadees maybe JDM will chime in here.
-Brian
lol shelf queen! [:D]
Right now I will be able to run it around the oval of track I have setup in my living room all the curves are R3 so shouldnt be a problem… Untill I get back to working outside then all that track is going in the backyard… So… I will be able to run it for a few weeks or so untill I finish my roadbed outside then it will be a “Shelf Queen” untill I finish the outside layout.
Next friday (5/30) im planning a day trip back up to Flint Michigan to visit and ride the Huckleberry RR at Crossroads Village and hopefully get some more pictures of the real D&RGW 464 in action [:)]
That’s reason for divorce. Good luck with all that.
lol I’m not married I live with my folks and work enough overtime to make a sane mans head spin [:P]
Besides its my birthday tuesday and I have been putting off getting one for 6 months, Haaaaappy Birthday to me! [:D]
You mean a HogWart is gonna own a real engine now !!!
That’s GERRRAAATTE…

Toad
Well remember now he has to do all those upgrades and kitbash to it so it will be a real train!
Toad
Mr Ash…you are buying the hogwarts and a k27?[:)]
LMAO no just a K27 unless you pay me [:P]
People giving me a hard time I must still be a noob lol [:D]
Nah Youngster,
We just mess’in witch’ya a bit that’s all, just in fun, don’t take us so serious…
As a train person/nut, you one of us, OK…
Byron C.
BTW that K27 is really a nice one, spent the day at a fellow club members house, he had DRGW and was it really nice, he made a custom steam donkey car and a few others to go behind it, all to scale it was really a beauty of a train. Wethered and all…
In that case Brian may I wish you A VERY HAPPY BIRTHDAY
I hope you are not working that day and can spend it running trains.[bday]
unfortunately I have to work 4-12 monday and 8pm to 8am tuesday night into wednesday [soapbox] ← Smily is perfect because I work at a soap factory lol [:D]
I ordered the K on friday so it wont be here until wednesday or thursday at the latest, I work wednesday night into thursday and thursday I plan to sleep all day and drive up to Flint MI in the evening to spend the following day at Crossroads Village so chances are I wont get to “play with it” until next weekend I allways have my Annies & Big Haulers to run untill then so I’ll live [xx(]
As far as birthday stuff goes im getting abducted after work today at 4pm to go play a round of golf with my sisters fiancee and my dad then were meeting up with the rest of the family to go out to dinner and then see the new Indiana Jones flick
I plead the fifth [:-^]
JUST THINK SOON YOU WILL BE AS OLD AS ALOT OF THE REST OF US.
SO… HAPPY BIRTHDAY… TO YOU[bday]
Dave
Don’t remind me Pops…Have a good B-Day! Soap? Which one???
Toad
Dial Soap, I work security [:P]
Any second, minute, hour UPS is going to ring my doorbell and “IT WILL HAVE ARRIVED!!!” lol… I got off work at 8am came home cleaned and oiled all of my big haulers & annies, cleaned my track, mowed the lawn, used the weed eater on the sidewalks, patio and “city limits” for my garden rr under construction all the rain in the last few weeks really helped the weeds grow up and some ants moved in too! [banghead]
I just got finished helping the city worker cut up the tree limb that fell across our driveway in that big storm last weekend, mowed the parkway and cleaned up the lawnmower…
Most Importantly changed the picture above my fireplace from RGS20 to D&RGW 464
The K’s first train will consist of a LGB Box car, Baggage car, closed vestibule combine & coach and USA woodside caboose [:P]
Still looking for 1 more closed vestibule coach or combine [xx(]
You really need to get off that Rock Star drink man…me, I have naps, so I can do things later…unless the Oberstgruppenführer is up in arms and she is barking orders. Then I move!
Toad
