    I cant tell you how bada$$ this engine is. Original diecast tender. Was also restored, no bell, light, or whistle, yet.They brought it back out in the 80's, smoke, steam sounds all the good stuff but its just not the same.

    Its not the bells or wistles or smoke. Its the "Switching" couplers on each end for moving loads around. Say I want to leave my trout aquarium cars on a diffent track while I get the dozer and excavator yo make trout ponds. So I have these Y switches to branch off then the coupler is on button.
