Sclman Posted December 6, 2018 Author Share Posted December 6, 2018 Yeah I like the warbonnett. I also like the UP flag CSX and Seaboard and Atlantic coast line. My father worked for the ACL and SCL.. my father in law started with the Acl in the 50s and retired after an auto rack fell on his crew van at yeoman in Tampa in 1997. I've modeled since I was 6 when my dad would take me with him to work in Lakeland fl. I saw the Acl passenger trains. I still have the first athearn gp35 I bought in 1975 at Chester Holley trains in Tampa. I modeled Ho for years then switched to O scale in 2012 and became an Mth dealer and service ctr. In 2017 I could not stand seeing the G guage at the shows plus I never liked 3 rail.. the G scale to me is just big Ho which I did so long. I also like the more realistic non toy look of G. Although mth premiere is pretty good. My layout is indoors and is 19 x 45 feet. Presently looking for a G steam with Dcs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
