I've just started back into model trains after a break of many years. Majority of my stuff is US prototype with the exception of a couple of UK locos.

HO loco roster:

PCM N&W Y6b 2-8-8-2
Proto Pennsy USRA Y3 2-8-8-2
BLI N&W J600
BLI N&W J611 with sound
BLI NH I-5 hybrid with sound
BLI C&O T-1 2-10-4
Spectrum 2 truck Class B Climax
Model Power D&RG 2-8-0 (same as the VR V class)
Bachmann Southern 0-6-0T.

N scale:

I haven't done an accurate head count but it's roughly 50 UP diesels, 400 wagons and 30 pass cars + heaps of other stuff. Ah. The Kato Eurostar set is in there too along with a couple of Farish UK steamers.

The soap avoiding, pot smoking hippy vegetarians may disagree with me, but they can get stuffed. They know the way to the airport and if they don't, i'll show them.

Carbon positive - and proud of it.

Ys and a Bachmann tank loco to give an idea of just how big these locos are.

I like the terrier locomotives. Very attractive machines.

They're pretty little things aren't they.

That engine is a J72

Oh, excuse me, you are indeed correct. They look rather similar when far off.

I do like the J72s also, but still prefer the terriers.

It,s been awhile since I brought a locomotive, Actually I found this one on Ebay just for fun. http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=150289386275&ssPageName=STRK:MEWN:IT&ih=005

It,s gonna look strange to see a Collingwood Locomotive to be charge of VR cars like BS, N class or K class or even B,AW sem cars.
Also this loco has KDs so there no mucking around with this one.

Ohh for all collingwood supporters who wants one of these locomotives, there is only one left so you need to hurry, for $40 includes delivery that a good price

Here is the straight link to it.

My Two LLoyds AN's made a debut on my layout today..

AN5 in PN* livery and AN3 in Ghan colours.

Both AN's are dummy's so they can run with my NR fleet. They both have the standerd mashima moter inside and C class bogies.. The decals were custom made Very Happy

Cheers Adam
