Joined: 03/04/2007(UTC) Posts: 1,605		Hello everyone, Today I received the train. I set it up, and cleaned the light dust off the cars. They look great! One car missing wheel but not too big of deal. My favorite car is the Rheingold car which is actually quite rare as I have seen on the internet. Here is the album: http://www.putfile.com/hoscaletrain/images/147679 Thanks for looking, comments welcome, Bill

Joined: 03/04/2007(UTC) Posts: 1,605		Thank you.... I have not tested the engine but have been told it runs. Anyone know a way to get 20V's without an appropriate transformer? I only have HO scale transformers.... Thanks, Bill

Joined: 03/04/2007(UTC) Posts: 1,605		Great! I will try that right now! Thanks, Bill Just tested it! NO surprise, it still runs! Just had to spin the wheels a bit then it would run no problem at all. I could tell it needs a good servicing though. Very exciting. Thanks, Bill
