    OK, who makes a better engine?

    pretty much agree with everyone on this one. Katos have the best pulling power. Atlas locos seem a bit light. Athearns are almost as good as Katos but just a little louder...which really doesnt bother me because ive never seen a real locomotive that was quiet

    Athearn SD70M

    I have two SD70Ms with the flared radiators in the NS. Also, I have a BNSF SD75 and I must say that when you first get them, they run a little loud. but once you break them in, they are very smooth. They are pretty strong pullers and they have really nice details (warning labels, sharp...

    Try south central New Mexico. I live somewhere between the mountains and the desert. There is nothing here but two casinos and snow that is slowly melting away.

    Thanks for the advice. The reason I kept the DD40 is because those are pretty difficult to come by, and plus, I have seen them sell for more than 100 dollars. I got this one for 50. Now, Im not dissappointed with the product itself. I am just dissappointed with the seller who led me to believe...

    Yes, the DD40AX I got negative feedback for is in N Scale. Im talking about SD38-2, all the GPs that Athearn has in HO, including all their other locos that are barely coming out in N Scale. All the steam locos etc...

    Thats a lot of horse power!!! N Scale is the second most popular scale, behind HO. I wish N Scale had as many products.

    I have left follow up feedback. Unfortunately, 80 characters is not enough for what I really wanted to tel him hehe

    haha yeah. I have to admit that I too have been charged 6 or seven dollars for 1.50 postage. An N Scale locomotive, which is what I mostly buy from Ebay, can be shipped for two bucks. Most people charge 7 or 8 dollars. Fortunately, a lot of the places sell their locos at very good prices, so...

    lol wow. Retaliation is a must at Ebay hehe. But I dont want to send it back nor I want a refund. I just think it was wrong for him to leave me negative feedback. Especially since it was HIS fault, and I left Neutral feedback. He said he was selling his entire collection. He must not have been...

    yeah, you give a fair warning that you are not 100% sure of this product. But you dont give negative feedback to someone who says its not as you described this item. Its childish. Im going to bug Ebay until I get it removed.

    yeah, i have 125 positive points and this last transaction gave me the one negative. Because of this, now Im at 99.2 percent positive. But yeah, people should not post information on an item if they are not sure if its this or that.

    yeah, the standard bachmann is one motor. The spectrum is two motors...right? Someone even asked him if it was one or two truck powered. He responded and said it was all wheel drive. that it was a Spectrum. But I dont think it is.

    his/her username is rambo104. I dont think he should have given me negative feedback for that. He was prolly in a bad mood.

    :curse: aight, so I buy a DD40 from Ebay, that stated that it was all wheel drive. I get it a week later and I come to find that only two of its 8 axels are powered. All the other wheels spin freely. Also, it had the front coupler missing and the handrails were bent and its got some glue...

    Super Detailed Locomotives

    thanks. I might have to try it out. I'll stop if its a pain though. Another question. What do you use to paint the grab irons and hand rails? The Badger model paint does not stay on the grab irons. The Floquil railroad colors paint stays on for a few days then it slowly breaks off. Should I add...
