Part 33: Some new small steam for the M-K & E
I can't keep myself from a little update from my layout....
I got a locomotive from my wife for Christmas, the latest locomotive from Bachmann, the 2-6-0 Mogul with the new basic sound decoder.
It has been a favorite locomotive type for a long time with me, but the previous locos on the market have left something to be desired ....
The fact that it has now come in a very decent version is really good!
It's a very good engine, especially if you look at the price. My wife paid $120 including Shipping! Totally unbelievable!
Then I also happened to buy a loco on eBay.de....
It is also a locomotive which has been on the wish list for a long time, but has been a bit too expensive in my opinion.....
It's the Proto 2000/Brawa 0-6-0 in the "Heritage" series.
I got it by accident when I made an offer that just went thru..... sometimes it's good to buy on eBay during the holidays!
I bought it in the DC version and it was brand new in the box, so the first thing I did was to put in a ESU LokSound decoder (wich lead to a change of lights and a need to rip out the circuit boards in the tender.....)
It is a fantastic fine running machine, and the amount of detail is very good!
So now I'll have to see when I get the time to finish and weather them ...... I have at least put some figures in the 0-6-0 locomotive.....
