Holy crap. Is that a Williams B6 I see working its *** off? Spectacular George! Spectacular.


Yes, yes it is! I have a number of Williams PRR locomotives running under TMCC - the B6sb, 2 K4s, 1 L1s.

I absolutely love them. They are excellent runners (superb under TMCC), rugged, and pretty good looking. And you can pick them pretty cheaply. Even putting TMCC boards, sounds, cruise, and F/R couplers doesn't break the bank.

Royalties???? :wink: :wink: :wink:

Well, I can't say I got one. That was one expensive bridge and piers!

I will say that it was worth the price, though.

Well the likelihood they will sell another is dwindling since they haven't replied to my email from 4 days ago :?

Greg, their key bridge builder had back surgery yesterday. I expect it's because of that. And they haven't responded to me, either.

Updated 8/3/2016:

After several days of sporadically running trains, I've discovered a few areas that need electrical attention. There are a few dead spots, probably caused by feeder wire pairs that didn't get connected. We're going to fix those in the near future.

But my wife came down and ran trains with me for 10 minutes. She was impressed and likes the layout! :!: :D

That's a rave-review, right there, George! Good for you - good for you both! I can see why you are such a relaxed and reasonable voice on the forum.

She likes the layout because she knows where George is and that he is not out carousing, drinking, and chasing women, or stealing hubcaps, :wink: :wink: :lol: :lol: :shock: :mrgreen:

I don't think so. Then again I once thought I made a mistake, but I was in error. I do not disagree with you; I merely state that you are wrong. As for hubcaps, after a time, you may find that having is not so pleasing a thing after all as wanting. It is not logical, but it often true.

:shock: oh, we be episoding, all right, and we can proceed further as soon as Rufy-babes sees and confesses the error-of-his-ways. Then, the dark forest will light up and all the little critters can be free to explore the outer circles. :mrgreen:
