Title: How many are still putting miles on older Big Hauler 4-6-0's?

I still have a faded red ATSF with simple plastic rods and a noisy drive.  But like the enegizer bunny it keeps going and going.  Its converted to onboard battery power with a simple on/off toggle on the front of the tender.  I did have to replace the headlight bulb(with a LGB bulb and socket), but the drive refueses to die.  She has lots of miles, plating is starting to wear off the tread on the pilot truck wheels even.   A replacement Annie drive is planned along with a repaint into black ICRR colors in the future.  Anybody else have an old ten wheeler still racking up the miles?
