Class J 4-8-4 N&W

[Peter Webster]

I am expecting one of these locos shortly and was hoping someone can recommend the best decoder to use. My current thoughts are the Tsunami mini and the Locsound.

[Santa Fe buff]

Let me know when it arrives if it is very good or not, I just might set my sights on one for HO.

I received one a few months ago and this J runs very well.   

One of my best steamers.  I can pull 9 ConCor passengers no problem.
Thats all I have for N&W cars.

Freight had to stop at 45 cars and up a 2% grade.

Note: if you mu the water tenders to other steam it will add more electrical pickups and less stalling to that loco ex.  MP steam.


Bachmann steam, the tenders  Bachman rocks!
