I think I will try to buy the motor you recommended. It isnt exactly the same as the current one in the engine, but I am sure I will get it working. Just wish me luck with the winning it part. Sometimes it is hard to win one of those auctions.

I have recently been watching Tracks Ahead on PBS which talks about model railroads and real railroads and it is pretty good, does anyone else know of any other model/real railroad shows? I think they are fun to watch whenever you have some time for it.
