Poking around..

So I'm still here, with no layout built so to speak. After a lot of thought and consideration, I'd decided that the narrow gauge bug isn't going away anytime soon, so it's time to indulge. I've got time to work on stuff for the next few months, before spring and garden season. :-)

So how about a picture of a rare beast?

 

 

This is a Railway Recollections Railbus. I don't know if Barry still offers this kit, but it's a neat one. I'm not sure if still has the power conversion kit available. It uses the Bachmann MDT switcher motor and one axle for power. I added a Lenz decoder, light and the brass castings you see. I want to add a trailer to it and some more details. Jordan Models has a similar bus kit out, so you may be able to convert it with Barrys power kit. might want to contact him via www.railrec.com

 

That may be my project this week. I've had this model forever, so it's time to finish it. Okay, time to post and hit the rack. I'm going to try to update this blog in 2014 once a week or so. We'll see how I do.. :-)
