[revolution1one]

@residentevil742 Maffei-Kraus ML4000, a german locomotive. Wiki it, there's some interesting info about it.

[revolution1one]

@revolution1one And it's a Rivarossi painted for Rio & Grande #4001. Plus it's powered and still works!

[residentevil742]

@revolution1one cool didnt know that

[residentevil742]

[revolution1one]

On 0:35 I have that green train.

[revolution1one]

@SuperCatfishdude The BN F40PH?

[SuperCatfishdude]

@revolution1one I don't know what the name is but it's the one one 0:11 thats green.

[revolution1one]

@SuperCatfishdude First 0:35 now 0:11 ?

[SuperCatfishdude]

@revolution1one The first time I had it wrong. Its the burlington northern with the curved front.

[revolution1one]

@SuperCatfishdude Ah okay. The Athearn. I need to do some work on it to get it running again.

[SuperCatfishdude]

@revolution1one I don't know whats wrong with mine the lights come on but it won't move.

[revolution1one]

@SuperCatfishdude I originaly opened mine to do some cleaning with the gears and such and found out that the metal contact bar that runs above the motor to each end was rusted making for poor electrical contact. I have to solder on wires than it'll be fine after that.

[SuperCatfishdude]

@revolution1one I will try that when I get a chance. I think might help. Thanks for the advice.

[revolution1one]

@SuperCatfishdude No problem. Make sure there's a bit of slack in the wire for the movement of the trucks.

[SuperCatfishdude]

@revolution1one I will do that thanks!

[cayusejon]

I only have 3.



[revolution1one]

@cayusejon That's a start.

[SuperCatfishdude]

@cayusejon I have six.

[cayusejon]

how many locomotives do you have?

[revolution1one]

@cayusejon Currently I have 47 engines, which includes ones that don't work.

[trainloverization1]

i would like to buy it all.

[revolution1one]

@trainloverization1 It's not a bad collection for being on a budget.
