HELLO,
Today, after becoming tired of my overpowered GP-35 hauling my short "Calico Freight Lines" train, I substituted my SW9 yard switcher, which handles the task admirably! (And I love the sound of that razzy switchyard horn, too!)
Yowsah Yowsah Yowsah!

Yes it is refreshing. What is the steam engine on the wall?
Variation is always good.

HEY CHRISTOPHER,
Do you mean the train in the background? The one on the wall shelf? THAT BIG ONE UP THERE?
That is what remains of the 150-foot G-Scale layout I had running between my game room and the 3rd car space in my garage, running through a portal in the wall, about 10 years ago.
It made a big heavy rumbling sound as it rolled around the track.
It's an LGB 2-6-0 MOGUL. My wife bought it for me because it was on sale...for $1100.
