Steve, that Texas Special sounds like a real train!

The TS did run partly on the SL-SF.

More over, ATSF!
I missed this thread first time around - and am glad that it resurfaced. I have to admit that TS is probably my most favorite engine / line that I do not have. Seeing these posts and video just reinforced that. Thanks for some great information and video.
Did anybody buy the 3rd Rail Texas Special E7? I've heard great things but never seen one.
