Sheree, if Frank bullies you into deciding that you want a nine volt train, or some parts of one, I definitely can help you out. Cheap. Also, I was wondering about your train's wheels. In its current form, would you prefer yellow ones? Cary "Frank (...) (24 years ago, 19-Oct-00, to lugnet.loc.us.nc)
