Thanks, Terry, that helped some.  I appreciate that.
It doesn't matter to me what the prices people are selling for now. (But I do find it interesting)  The people asked me only for the original retail.  They'll be setting the prices

The date for the Gold Rush helps and I guess the Walthers price is probably as close a number as I'll get for retail.

Anyone else out there have more to add?

Hey gang, can anyone help me?
I'm working on an estate sale for a friend and can't find out the year of introduction and catalog retail price for a G scale set #90022 "Gold Rush" and an On30 scale set #25001 "Wonderland Express"".

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Does anyone know what happened to the Whistle Post Forum?
Did it finally end or is it just having technical problems?

The best I've ever found.  It's where I got all my track. 
There's a map of my layout and track list on the "Photos" page of my website -

Hope that helps some.

OK - this should be EVERYTHING you need for part numbers.

It's all there. Nothing else needed to say.

We ALL know, you've said it ad nauseam.

Because I don't play with toy trains! 

I'm building a model of a railroad.

Cheers

Hate to disillusion you, but as soon as you turn on the power, you're playing with your toy trains.  Granted, they may look more accurate to scale, but unless you are building a 1:1 scale, it's still a toy train.  Put away your feeling of superiority and relax.  It's just a hobby.

I'd be more worried about my life than my trains in that situation.

OK - I got a photo bucket account.  If I did things right, there should now be some pictures here.

Did you use add 3?

Sorry - I don't know what you mean. The Loco and Power Cab were supposed to be factory set to "3".  I checked on the Power Cab screen and it listed the Loco as "3"  (if that's what you mean).

OK gang - mr. dummy here. I sure could use some help with my DEAD 4-4-0.

I have a brand new HO Spectrum 4-4-0 #80128 DCC/Sound.
It's a year and a half old, but this is the first time out of the box, and first time anything's been on the track.
I'm trying to use it on EZ Track. I've checked all track connections.
There are no switches, crossovers, turnouts, etc, just a continuous folded dogbone.

I'm hooked up to a brand new NCE Power Cab, about 8 - 12 months old.
It's the first out of the box for it also.

Normally to trouble shoot, I'd just replace one item at a time, but in this case I have no options since nothing has been working before, and I have no replacement options.
I've had no luck searching this web site and the NCE site for answers.

Here's what I've done.
Checked all track connections, and clear of anything laying across tracks.
Connected the two leads between the engine and tender. (tough for old eyesight and fat fingers).
Checked and double checked to make sure all wheels are on tracks, and placed on the powered (?) terminal rerailer in case the track was too long etc.
Clipped off the terminal end plug of the red power wire.
Put the two leads into the screw terminals of the plug for the Power Cab power panel.
Plugged the other end into the EZ Track Terminal Rerailer.
Plugged in the Power Cab (to the correct socket with the correct wire)
Plugged the NCE power panel into a working wall outlet. Red light on power panel is lit.
Power Cab lights up. No defaults have been changed. Set for Loco #3.

Turn the thumb wheel - nothing happens. No response from bell, whistle etc.

Does anyone have any idea where to look next?

I tried posting photos - can't even get that to work tonight.  Files are too big.
AAAHHHHHHHHHH - what a day - hide the knives.        

Reading more about the video in the linked site - it is not a commercial you'll see on TV.  It is a sample of what can be done, and used to TRY to get a commercial on TV.  The museum is trying to get a sponsor for their locomotive. Great idea - well done.

Anyone who finds fault with their efforts "ain't a rail fan"

Go get 'em guys !!!

GG -  I'm on your side here.  This forum is for people having FUN with Bachmann Products.  It appears that describes you to a T.

And that's all that's needed.
Bachmann - where the fun is always shinning.

To me, no matter what you have for a layout, if you're not building 1:1 scale, you're still playing with trains.  Ain't it fun?

Does anyone know any dealers or (?) that installs them?  I have an HO spectrum 4-4-0 and know I could never work in that small a space.
