San Juan Decals has some--also MicroScale has some.

I collect "Ancient HO"--and have often encountered "Zamak Rot"--it is apparently due to impurities in the metal. 

If the part only has cracks in it, and is not critical for strength or alignment, I flow "Krazy Glue" into the cracks.  Seems to do the job.

Large / C-19 video
June 12, 2014, 07:15:41 PM
Not really new--but trying again re C-19 intro--had a computer whiz over so thought I would try and download it.  I was able to play it--but wanted to burn a copy to go with my other loco dvds.   Those all have important set-up and maintenance info--is anything similar available for the C-19? can I get a copy of what is on here??  Also--- I tried to sign in and my
old e-mail is blocking access--
Thanks--GJ

Just got my 2014 catalog--I do not recall reading anything about the Large Scale/ 1"20.3 Forneys as "coming attractions" --Whenn are they coming out?  Or have they already?

I had one of the early 4-4-0's--with "NMRA Polarity" and no selector switch--The Bach Man published instructions for the change--needs a soldering iron.

All this is very well described in the new issue of Garden Railways.  gj

I haven't heard the Acela--but based on seeing/hearing GG-1's on the Pennsy back in 1966, I don't think the high-speed electric locos offer much sound--could be a waste of time--  they were more of a"whooooosh!!" and gone--gj

Yes--at some time there may be intermingling of the lines--and I'm fairly confident that kids

who are properly started with Thomas s and LBH's will progress to the Standard line and even to Spectrum--gj

Thanks--I am assuming that the dealer I had one ordered thru  (W&I Trains) is no longer in business--they do have an ad in new Garden Railways--but phones appear to be disconnected. 

Does anyone have stock numbers for this car?
