Re: utilizing On3 components
Well there's Forneys and then there's not Forneys. And yes they were available in all gauges.

There was some suburban locomotives that looked a lot like Forneys but of course aren't and neither ware Mason Bogies. Forneys or originally designed to run tail first hence no lead wheel, the tender truck acted as a lead wheel.

In general. Thoughts? What about these (Forney frame). 4 driving wheels leaves something to be desired. About 5" long, nearly 1" wheelbase. The frame could be cut down obviously. Any possibility beyond a 0-4-0t/2-4-0/0-4-2t switcher or such? ============== Here's what I did with the Forney On3 frames...? Two AF Reading cabooses too... -- Dick Karnes, MMR |

Price Reduced-Overland B&O EMD F-7 A and B units for sale
Fixers special.
I have a set of Overland B & O EMD F-7 A and B units for sale. I have attached pictures of both sides of each model. Price reduced from $350.00 to $300.00 and I will pay for shipping to the lower 48. In the first photo of the A unit, the spacing between the I and the M in the word Baltimore is tight. The motor shaft slips in the black housing and causes the engine to not run properly. This will need to fixed. See the last photo attached. If interested, contact me off group at wkschlinger@... I accept PayPal friends and family and personal check for payment. If you pay by check, I will ship the models once the check clears. Wade Schlinger |

I have started a rotation where I take five off and put five new ones into the mix regularly but I still have too many.? I recognize that used freight cars sell for the price of the couplers and trucks so my thought is to bring a box of cars to the convention, price them a bit above the cost of trucks and couplers and if they don't sell, strip the trucks and couples off them and stomp on them like Rollie Mercier did many years ago.? It should make good show and reinforce the thought that I am getting a bit crazy in my old age.
Your logic is right on about steam locomotives, I can only agree because my wife will not read this post.? ?
