Weaver Amtrak E8 ABA & MTH Amtrak 70' 8 Car Consist

Here we have a set of Weaver E8 ABA's with Timko flywheel motors installed pulling an MTH Amtrak 3 stripe 70' ribbed streamlined 8 car set consisting of (1)baggage car, (2)coaches, (1)dome car, (1)diner, (1)sleeper, (1)full dome car, and (1)observation car. This is not a permanent layout as you can very well see. I just set this up for the holidays.

is the horn any good on it?

There are no sounds in the E8's as these are stock Weaver locomotives except for the Timko flywheel motors. I want to pick up an MTH E8 ABA set on Ebay and consider having the Weaver shells adapted to fit the MTH chassis's or have the MTH shells painted in Amtrak.

Thank You For Your Comment!

I am using Gargraves 37" Straight Sections With Phantom Center Rail & Stainless Steel Outside Rails. For Curves I Have 72" Radius Phantom Center Rail & Stainless Steel Outside Rails.

Good Luck!

I am starting to hate fastrack. What is this amazing track you have that seems to work on the carpet just fine?
