viperman, THANKS!!
**Josh, THANK YOU! for the complements on the GP and the rust & weathering on the mech reefer
. i seen in another thread that you too, had just got a mech reefer, i thought you'd like it
. **Wayne, THANK YOU!, for the VERY KIND words on the GP.
THANKS GUYS!, your comments were GREATLY appreciated. **announce1 ON A DIFFERENT NOTE, i took a vacation day today, so i went to the LHS:thumb:. I needed to stock up on some Floquil and Badger brand colors, pick up some aircraft paint thinner, Dull cote and Solvaset. i walked in, went straight to the engine counter(as usual
) , and seen they had a Athearn CNW SD40-2 for $35.00...well, I'm sure you see where this is goingtooth1(54 engines now) . ANYWAYS, i picked up a MRC 370AD sound decoder to go with it for $49.99. **I KNOW i have rated the MRC 370AD sound decoder as "poor" in quality, BUT STILL, it IS a sound decoder, and now i have a DCC sound engine for the low, low price of $85.00!!! HARD TO BEAT THAT!!:thumb:
....OH, BTW, on my way home i realized i had FORGOT to get Solvasetwall1 hamr. LOOKS like i will be going back to the LHS later this week tootooth1 . **FIST PIC, the engine and sound decoder, right out of the box. SECOND PIC, the proto i plan on going by to do this engine.
