Sounds perfect! Cheap train parts from you and I get to blame Frank :-) for
talking me into spending the money...
I have modified the engine, added a tipper coal car and added a bay window
luxury car. The wheels I have now are the twisted time train ones - 3 pairs
of wheels on the engine now with pr 1 and 3 connected by a yellow bar which
has a nice motion when the engine is pushed.
I would like to have all the cars with real train wheels and the correct
connectors for a functioning train. Color would be subordinate to function
for me.
I am thinking that if I can get a working track layout and train for my
younger daughter for the holidays, then occasionally she might let me run my
FV 55 on it assuming I am able scrounge up the necessary wheels/ connectors
and ??? it takes to make a real train. What else would I need? Motor...?
Heck if I know now...
Posted on other thread that this Fri pm or Sat pm is also okay for me.
Hope to see a good group sometime soon !
