U.S trains on the Creedy Junction Railway

[spamcan]

A couple of years ago I sold all my U.S stock to finance a live steam loco. I decided to concentrate on British and European narrow gauge. However the atttraction of U.S models will not go away so I have started to buy again! I have decided to use the lower level of my layout for U.S models (operated by analogue control) and the higher level line for narrow gauge (operated by MTS). Live steam can run on both lines. Here are some pictures of my expanding U.S fleet.

Both A and B Units. These are ideal for pulling heavier trains over the steep grades on my layout. However the currect draw was tripping out my Gaugemaster. I have now replaced this with a Aristocraft Everest - 15 amp of power!

Hi Richie, The bumble bee livery looks even better when you see it on the actual model rather then just the photo. It loses a bit of the sharpness when the picture is resized. Incidently I am selling an identical model (with a different number) on eBay this weekend. I thought I would mention this to tempt the Rio Grande fans on GSC!

WOW! Paul,

You are returning to the fold.  Well, as you have not been here yet I can't take the blame.  

I saw your works cars on Ebay and noted other items to come.  I'll keep looking, but as you know I am faithful to one woman and one make of model.
