 Does any one know of a source for hay bails in g scale? fairly cheap? or how to make them  would be better and more fun(I think )
  Need it for my new bachmann Big top  train yet another great set Bachmann! It is "new old stock". Took it out lubed it up and away she went! Very nice set.

 Can you swap out the engine shell and tender shells easy( from a older big hauler  radio control one emmet kelly circus version) onto a newer electric one? Thus making a neat newer  one?

  Has any one ever had a  G scale bachmann train set utterly destroyed when shipped in its original packaging even the original outer shipping  box? I received a circus set today and it was DESTROYED!!!! but no damage to the packaging at all! trucks of tender was sheared off weight had smashed through the rear of the engine taking parts of circuit board with it and the deatils there plus boiler side has heat warpage it looks like. front truck on engine one wheel is sheared off and axle broken  the metal wheels on the combine car  the outer rims are loose and hanging on the plastic axles. The domes on engine were loose in the box. And that is just the real obvious damage .
  Thanks for letting me vent just real upset as i was really looking forward to this set as an aside it was shipped fedex ground.

  Any one know of  good sites , tips and or books on how to paint large scale train cars and engines? 
  I  tried just painting the under sides of cars,wheels  and tenders  flat black. and am amazed how much better the cars look just doing that. so any ideas would be great. As always thanks for any help.
