@William 1 :  Great story about the 390E  I had a similar experience with my 224 pre-war steamer.  Seller gave me a great price but told me that honestly it didn't run.  I wanted a shelf queen for a set of pre war Lionel passenger cars so that was ok.  Some 2 years later when I finally negotiated some room to put up a layout...I set it on the track and started fooling around with the direction lever...lowe and behold, she took off and has been running since.  Can't reverse but I don't  back up a passenger train anyway.   I also liked your "double headed" #8's they look good.
