Although I'm probably more of a 3RS/2R modeler, I can't separate myself from the memories of my youth that started it all. Also, if S gauge had been a bit further along when I got back into O gauge, I would be in S. It probably is the perfect scale.
Getting to the point, I've always liked AF products and have always wanted one of their billboards. When one came up on the Forum, I made an impulsive buy.
I always thought this one had a great picture. After cleaning it up a bit and taking it downstairs, I oiled it and hooked it up. The motor and whistle worked fine.
But, WOW, talk about Ozone!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Now my can motored engines can run around, but when I need a whiff, I can always blow the whistle!
