    Hi all. This is not my first post, but I introduce myself here.
    I'm from the central NY area. I've been into rods for a long time. My current ride is a 32 5w. Before that was a 30 5w. Durring the day, I'm a mechanical engineer for a medical company. I have a fairly compleate shop, do all my oun design and building, except paint and interior.
    I like to design and build small gas and steam engines also.
    That's about it.

    Welcome from another fairly new guy in Texas. I don't hardly ever post anything, but am on here several times a day looking, dreaming, wishing, and drooling about all the neat "toys" everyone has and builds.

    That train you have on here is neat as hell !!!! Do you have any other sites you are on that might have it on with some info about it ?

    Grouch- the loco is for 7.25 gage track. You can ride behind it. It's propane fired.
    Bilt- I do like a clean shop. It get's dirty, but I stop the project at a good time and clean up, then on to the next thing.

    Thanks- No, no videos. Unfortunately, I sold that loco. I realy regret doing that too. The guy that bought it was after me for a year. I had just begun to gather parts for my 32, so at the time it seemed like good thing to do. He sold it to another fellow, and I have not seen it at any of the model engineering shows that I go to.
