i havnted been into trains for years now
and everything is so expeinsive

Hee Hee...its the green car you pictured. It's lettered for the Penn Central railroad which is my favorite even though its not often considered a popular road to model. I'm always tickled to see PC equipment of any sort. I'm funny that way.

[Ralph]

You asking about my email?

 

[gothic_smurf_89]

i dont know much about trains right now

need some help on maintaince,.like cleaning tracks and such

 

[Ralph]

I model in a different scale and use different equipment than the items you have. There are plenty of members on the forum who should be more familiar with your kind of stuff though and will have some advice regarding cleaning and maintenance. Keep checking your thread and good luck! :thumb:

tracks are a lil dirty and need some cleaning ,some tlc i guess
