Railking Imperial Trump Train SD-70ACe number 2024 and its America First caboose arrived today thanks to the UPS man.
It is on the track and earning its keep. I will try to shoot a video later today or tomorrow so you can see it in action. Great addition Joe!

I can now run 2 Trump Trains and a passenger train for some contemporary railroad action. Tonight 2024 pull an express reefer train and 2020 pulled an intermodal train. Passengers were serviced by an Amtrak Genesis pulling Amfleet cars. It was a fun night of railroading.

Nice trains Joe, the railking imperial engines are some of the best on the market and reasonable priced. I have a few on my layout also.

I added a Lionel legacy BNSF GP30 In the yellow and blue of the former Santa Fe. Runs great with even better sounds.
Works great on my O42 and O36 curves also.

I went to the Deland train show today. I enjoyed the layouts but nothing I saw on the vendors' tables was calling my name so I drove over to Roundhouse South Electric Trains and found this Railking contemporary era 50' FEC boxcar.
I also found this Woodland Scenics Jug Band.
The band will go into the gazebo at the Gitchee Goomee Noonie Wa Wa Campground.
Tony thinks my New York Central SD70ACe will be in sometime next week. If so, I will list it here.

I spent yesterday morning at the local train show. The show is mostly HO, but there were some O Gauge vendors. It took me only a couple of hours to get through them all. Good new, I. stayed within budget. Here is what I picked up. The reefers, caboose and the bargain bin finds were on the list. The Atlantic Coast Line E6 engine wasn’t but it was a great deal and I could not pass it up. The B&M Steal caboose was also a bonus find. MTH PS3 Railking E-6 A-A Atlantic Coastline. Got a great detail, about $100 less than what people are asking for them on eBay. Runs great! I don’t have passenger cars for it so I will probably just run a mix of cars until I fine some. K-Line NPR Reefer. Missing a ladder, but I think I can print one out. Got a good deal. Great detail on this car! MTH Railking SantaFe Reefer Some bargain bin finds. Will be some projects in these to get them cleaned up. This was an exciting find. MTH Premier lighted steel center cupola caboose in B&M. Model of a Mercedes car of some sort made by a French company. I know nothing about it but I thought it was neat and less than $10. I guess it’s a transport vehicle for a hotel.

Adam, I really like the ACL E6. For some reason I have always liked the ACL colors in the purple and silver.
