I know Sparks.   ;D   He said other good HO sites.   I know its OO, but you can learn a lot from other sites like those.

Take your time Bachmann.  No rush.   
I think Anthony wants to know in a matter of space.   I know for myself, I am making a add on to my layout and I want to make sure I dont build everything but the sheds and when I put them on they dont fit (Length wise on the board).   Or I could be wrong.  No doubt at all that
the big engines fit.

I suggest saving up and buying the NS track from bachmann.   It would be more easier and free of risk of killing your track.

okay, thats good, happens to me too, but ther is a lot of ways to get nickel silver track, either you can buy true track from atlas, it is code 83 track with brown ties and removable roadbed
EDIT:  He has a good idea.  I use it and I am using it again for my 3rd layout w/out the ballast.  Code 83 has brown ties and you might have to clean it once in a while, but its better than scrubbing everytime you use it!  lol

Thats isnt good.  You best try and sweep your CPU before it gets worse.  Uninstall Trainz again AFTER you get the virus off.  Then, you best go and get the newer models.

It is a fantastic read!   I am only on Chapter 2, but it is very interesting.  I read ahead and loved how Gordon got hid name and how Thomas came to be!   
BTW, Edward is a fantastic runner and so is Mavis.  Edward pulls about four express coaches with ease.   He can manage about 6, but he slips.  I haven't seen Mavis' potential.  All she has pulled is trucks, about 4 or 5.  She toted the mail van round once, but I gave it to Percy.

I was at the store today, and I heard someone even complaining how hard HO/OO is for them.  I doubt they'd go smaller.   
Possibilities?  Think S8 and onwards.   I think those are the guys you can expect from Bachmann.  But February will only tell.   Hopefully Salty isnt the only one...

ANYWAYS....    This is a Christmas topic, not the fussing topic. 
On a happier note, how was everyone's holiday?  What did you guys get?

Me?  I got:
-Bachmann Edward and Mavis
-1/35 Scale model of a Class 52 Steam Engine
-The Thomas the Tank Engine Man
