(...) We'll I finally was able to snap a few photos of the front truck fix for my Hiawatha at (URL) last week's show>. Before the fix the engine ran fine at home but would always derail at shows. After some diagnostics, it became clear that with the (...) (17 years ago, 16-Feb-08, to lugnet.trains, FTX)

(...) John: That might work if you were using precolored pellets...but honestly...if you were using precolor, you wouldn't see the variation. :-) With both concentrates and liquid color, there can easily be shot-to-shot variation if (...) (17 years ago, 16-Feb-08, to lugnet.color, FTX)
