http://project3713.com/wp/?page_id=496 A project initiated by the "Lackawanna & Wyoming Valley Chapter of the NRHS" at the NPS Steamtown NHS hopes for completion in 2017. Supported by a great group of volunteers with commitment! Always nice to see the efforts around our country for 'not only preservation, but the "return to service" objectives.' Enjoy

Does nothing for the smaller running layout operators; only give-me is the K4. Hoped for a SW1500.

Navin, nice to have the update, looking forward to touch-base with you at ECLSTS.

The SW is a modified USAT with MTH Protosound 2; the 1st car is MTH 1:32, 2nd MDC etc., the PP&L are 1:29 ARISTO 100 Ton hoppers. Followed by 3 2-by ARISTO hoppers and a 1:29 ARISTO brass caboose.

I run 1:29 and 1:32 together, I just put the longer 100Ton Aristo's in the middle or end of the consist.

Jerry, what Kadees should be used?

I've been a MTH for a long, long time... many criticized the 1:32 for quite awhile. Where else can you get a whole package: DCS--total control, sound, smoke, lights etc. in the unit! My roster is varied and I can run the Bachmann oldies, 1:29 GP units, or 1:32. Enjoy, enjoy...

Nice, I'd go for it--however my TIU bit the dust, have to get a Handheld and TIU at the end of the month!

Thanks, will look into Tuesday (Nov 24).

Pulled out my F3 pair yesterday for a run and battery charge, however when attempted to run forward or in reverse, the rear truck on the powered A would run at 1 mph and then increase in speed like a runaway! Front truck would not run forward or reverse. Anyone encounter this problem?

Nothing like a MTH Challenger, mine is Delaware & Hudson 1535. Nice trackside run.

Nice steam plume...

Hi Jerry, how does a Nebraskan tag the D&H? I'm located in NE PA across the Susquehanna River fromwhat had been the southern terminus of the D&H; Hudson Yard was north of Wilkes-Barre the end point. Remember the roundhouse in W-B; was Trainman for Steamtown NPS with Bernie O'Brien that had the GP38-2 #7312 named for him. I understand the Lightening Stripes have joined the ranks of the PAs & Sharks & may be a Fallen Flag now... He really enjoyed working the #2317 Pacific out of Scranton.

Just tried it and it worked, iMac with Safari.

How do you want to be paid?

The 'PAZ' D&H Challenger #1535 eastbound at the pittston junction diamond. Local freight action as well.

Not only is your layout great, your video matches it so nicely I have realized the 'PAZ' has to expanded it's D&H roster for PAs and passenger service. We will put our D&H Challenger #1535 to use as you have, for now she is relagated to coal and freight drag service out of Carbondale, PA.

Interesting, I was in the process of installing something similiar for the "Pennsylvania Arizona's" [PAZ] shed storage access trackage. Instead, installed an Aristo Diamond that I never used. Have a switch tower to control movements over main line.

From watching the vid's and listening to the info, am I understanding that the building (engine shed) will be on its own? Info shows the engine shops where she was built as being redone into a museum as well (Wheels etc.) - why isn't an effort made to locate in the shop building in a portion of the building?

Sorry, deleted my post; repeated myself... age???

Jerry, not only does the new color enhance the arches; your location and style are outstanding.

PS2 conversion in a USAT NW-2 (high runtime); sometimes my system will decide to run with limited speed control. Speed setting 1 mph and the unit is moving at just about overspeeding! Then sometimes, all runs as it should. Remote and TIU are in toolbox mounted at RR. Also, Rayman, anything on converting a USAT S4 to DCS?
