Thanks, everybody. I just might get it. ;)

I was reading a listing on eBay about a walkaround throttle. It said it could be used for N/ HO scale. I model HO scale. However:( wait for the stupid question )

It says:

The model 851's high impact styrene case measures only 4" X 2" X 1". The inside is packed with circutry. No additional circuit boards need to be installed. Simply wire it to an existing 12VAC to 18VAC power source and to your tracks and you're in business!

Does it output in DC or AC? I have a Bachmann Spectrum Magnum power pack that I'll use for my "power source"

Thanks for reading this,

Paul

And a few Silverados were on an empty pulpwood car. Puh-leeze.

Also note the older-style auto rack cars.

Haven't seen any of the 'dozers yet. I've bought a lot of their Model Power cars and seen some of their racecars.

The non-streamlined P1's could be easily adopted into other roads  ;D

Yes, a Southern Ps-4, or even a P-1 would be magnificent.

However, I would like to see a "smaller" 2-8-0 version than the current Spectrum. It is much too large for many applications south of the Mason Dixon, including the K-class consolidations of the Southern.

Looks like we've got 3 votes for a generic-ized T&P P-1  ;D ;D ;D

Guilford Guy's, Matt's, and mine. ;D

Looks like UP's tired of awkward delays on their route.

Jim was right. It is a water tank car for use at a water plant. The picture was taken in 1950. I'm gonna have to guess about the length. It's probably, like mentioned before, 25-35 feet. I'll go with 30 feet . I'll shorten an old Tyco tank car and maybe upgrade the dome on the Tyco car.

Thanks, guys
