    Freight car question

    Detailed freight cars are pretty expensive :eek: what are you doing to get good looking cars at resonable prices? Tyco and Bachmann are on Ebay dirt cheap but look like crap. I know everyone can't be popping out 20 bucks or more per car, that gets into thousands of dollars real quick.

    Question for the (Experts)

    I just got A bli paragon PRR j1 2-10-4. The thing is a little stiff on 22 radius, it does not derail but it slows down on the curves. Now on to the question.
