    I suppose I should start a thread for this question, but I figured it would end up going to you for advice anyway, so here goes. I'm considering one of the Bachmann Spectrum 2-8-0 Baldwin steam locos in HO. It looks like their DCC is housed in the tender. My issue is my prototype used Vanderbilt tenders almost exclusively in the early days (the period I model). I have several of the MDC/Roundhouse Vanderbilt tenders (the short one). Have you ever tried to squeeze the pc card into one of these? Would you be willing to try?

    Can a well matched pair of A & B units (speed wise) on DC, be matched equally well on DCC with a SDH164D and a DH163D decoders?

    Sean,
    Hope all is well in Sand Point. Haven't heard from you in ages so just thought I would make sure you're still breathing.
    Give me a shout when you get the chance.

    Hey Sean,
    What's been goin' on lately? Haven't heard from you in awhile, but I realize you and Wendy are hard at work getting ready for winter to set in.
    I've been dinkin' around with my layout just about every day for the past two or three weeks. Finally making some serious headway with the lake and river. Can't work on the big mountain & tunnel in the corner until they're finished up, otherwise I would have a nasty reach over the top of the mountain. I have long arms, but I'm NOT a gorilla!
    In a week or so I'll have enought finished to shoot you some pics.
    Take care,
    Bob

    Hi bud,

    Can u do me a huge favour? There is a post here re: RIP Dad where Andy is selling a 3 Truck Shay. As you are familiar with this loco can u ask him a few questions on my behalf to determine what u think might be a fair price!! If I buy it might get him to send to you then on to me!!

    Thanks
    Pat

    How's that engine coming a long. I recently aquired a DCC controller and would really like to test it out, but haven't heard a peep from you. What's up?

    Hey Sean,

    Is it possible the engine I got from you won't work with a Bachmann controller? It lights up on the track but won't move
