Ran my 3 car MTH state set pulled by my dark grey Lionel Classics 2-400E with a diecast air whistle yesterday. I have a number of 1920's era LGB seated figures in those cars plus a few other LGB figures, and they fit perfectly in those metal chairs! On another loop, I can run my MTH dark green 408E and its 200 series work train consist: LCT mojave dump car, LCT maroon gondola, MTH terra cotta searchlight car and an MTH orange/cream work caboose. My middle loop is an LGB R2 with an all bier consist. GLAD  to be back in my trainroom!

I guess you could call my train room a kind of "man cave". I have five large framed train photos, one with a B&W NC&StL 570 series engine resting under steam in the Nashville Union Station, and the other a color painting of the interior of the Union Station Trainshed circa 1945, with the 576 pulling a train of heavyweights into the shed. I have a desk with my laptop and a digital radio scanner with a cool touch screen (Uniden Homepatrol 2). It is a nice "escape" room, where I can go online and also monitor the scanner for police, medic, train and fire traffic. The Uniden is a very compact scanner, with a lot of touchscreen options! My train controls, a Z4000, and a DC lab quality switchable power supply (0-30 volts, 0-3 amps) coupled with a PIKO 5 amp electronic controller for my LGB. Works for me!
