    How hard is it too....

    Not too bad if your patient. I did this with a few locomotives and cabooses. The numbers were painted on. I tried to remove with alcohol but it didn't work, so I decided to patch over them. After I masked it all off and sprayed it, I decided that I didn't like it so I wiped it off. I was...

    Have You Ever......

    It helps if its not a chain. I go there about once a week if not just to talk. I don't know anyone else in the hobby so its cool to get to hang out for a bit. It would be embarassing to walk out forgetting to pay for something though! sign1

    Negative feedback for nothing

    Yeah, kinda like the listing for a SD40-2 that is up right now. The pictures are of a GP7. :rolleyes: If I sell someting and don't know exactly what it is, I list the rough detail of what it is and as questions come up I look, learn, and then describe individually.

    How did you get into the hobby?

    Since I'm a truck driver I get the CB radios ( I just dropped $450 into my old Cobra 29.) But I don't understand ham radios. What is their use? I've never been around them so I'm blind to it. :wave:
