I could take the trucks off of these units and make a modern switcher. That's if those trucks are any good and IF I could find one cheap.

I believe that it would be the old Aristo GP40 (molds) so that would be 1/29 scale.

Probably not new news to a lot of folks here. Looks like the Aristo GP40 is coming again (at 22:39 into the video)

seems like you can get just about everything in HO!

Thanks Ray. I bet I saw something in a smaller scale.

I've never seen any Marklin engines in person. I think I saw a listing for them in G scale or maybe it was O? Does anyone here know about these? Maybe the F series from EMD? or anything more modern from them?

WOW! the long awaited engine is finally .....

Thanks! I missed your reply until now. All of a sudden I am very busy with life and work. When it cycles around, or slows down, I will dive in. I think I have to. There are many things that keep me from doing more scratch builds. These fans are a great example.

cool! Edit: I mean that's cool.

Beauty!

I got some outside help to finally make more of the details for this engine (EMD) G scale engine CR (NS) SD80MAC build | O Gauge Railroading On Line Forum (ogaugerr.com) I have many projects that I started but never finished. The reasons vary. Usually I don't have the time, or.... it's too difficult to make something by hand and get it perfect. Request to Build: 1/32 emd SD80mac fans: Thanks everyone ! | O Gauge Railroading On Line Forum (ogaugerr.com) I really need to get into printing parts myself.

Yep!

Sorry Sir. I said decoder. I only use MTH board sets. I used to install other brands. I label them all "decoders". It appears that you are installing the whole DCS system in this case. What exactly is in that B unit?

most people put in a decoder. You are putting in the whole DCS system! Wow. Love to watch the work progress. Thanks for sharing.

great stuff!!

I contacted Ray because I can't get his site to load. He said it looks good on his end. My computer error page said took too long to respond? Has anyone here had issues with it?

Oh boy. I stopped buying trains for some time now. I have to keep an eye open for your great work! I'd love to get some of it for momentos at the least. Those E8s alone, are a work of art!

Great job. Love the layout too!

Nice work!

Oops. I only saw page 1 before I posted. Very cool pics here.

Wow, what a pic!

Well...yes. I have put a MTH smoke unit into a USA trains dock side engine for example, as well as several diesels. I use the MTH boards for control in each engine so it's easy for me to add smoke.

Thanks!

I just saw this on Facebook G scale swap. I am interested. I figured it would be gone by now. Does it have all the extra parts still? How much to ship to Lewiston, NY? I don't know how to contact you.
