I think thats a good idea. I wouldn't mind a truss bridge.

Here's a set-up test shot for the night photography class I'm giving for the Durango & Silverton's Photo special this weekend.

Very nice. I am a fan of the D&RGWRR. I've never seen one running in person, but I have seen them and gotten in the K-28 at the musuem.

Great work!

A southern RR pacific?

I like Big Boys because they're big, and 9000s because they're neglected.

You are a fine Jedi Knight, Lanny.  The Force is with you and you will never go over to the Dark Side. 

So that makes me Darth Vader I guess.

Sounds like a plan.

How about sending in the defective loco, with your 20.00 and buying a new one with sound!  That way you get two locos.  The cost difference will probably be the same anyway!  Just a though.  Stephen

Lanny was the closest, because I want a sound equiped version. I have the DCC ready. Stephen, I'm 12. I can GARENTEE you I don't have $310 lying around.

Very lucky you found a sound system in the tender. I just wonder why the motor had to be so far back though.

I am using a digitrax zephyr. How do I go about testing the voltage on this locomotive. You will have to excuse me but I am very new to this stuff. Thanks

You'll need a voltometer (Is that what it's called? I'm only 12 and don't know everything.) which I belive is available at radio shack.

Sometimes I feel like I don't express my point. Let me try to clear this up.
I have a HO Heavy Mountain. I need to send it in so it can be replaced, which costs $20. I was wondering if I could send in the price for the Sound Equiped version minus mine also and have it be replaced by one with sound.

Does that make any sense?

Based on what Tony's charges for installing a sound decoder, I don't think Bachmann would do it for $20.  But I don't think they'd do it, anyway.
Gene

Gene, I ment if I could send in my 4-8-2 for Replacement, and send in enough money for the new version subtracked from mine AND the $20 fee for the actual replacement.

Thanks for the very quick reply.
I figured I would have to do some pre arranging.

... could I send in my Heavy Mountain for repairs/replacment, but send in enough money to cover the $20 fee and to upgrade it to be eqiuped with a Tsunami decoder?
