One tough engine..... AND a question ! | O Gauge Railroading On Line Forum

OK - stupid me, but I drove my Williams GS-4 around a 72" curve so fast that it literally flew off the track knocked over some scenery and landed with a BANG on the floor. Speed limit signs have been posted and will be obeyed.

Much to my my amazement I picked it up and re-tracked it. After realigning one set of wheels on the tender and it ran just fine.

Despite the lack of sound it is certainly a sturdy and reliable engine. Maybe I can find a Daylight Special themed box car with steam chuff sounds to add some realism. Do any of you know anything about this possibility?

You can put a railsounds commander from Electric railroad in it. They will work in conventional mode.

I bought a brass Williams daylight a couple of weeks ago for $35. No tender or trailing truck, because it hit the floor too.
