Got in a loco, a Williams by Bachman UP 4-6-0, from OGR advertiser Mario's, that, with the Weaver 2-8-0, when l find one, make a great pair for power on a short line. I have an MTH Russian decopod, as once used on the DT&l and other "shorter" lines. However, K-Line and Lionel have offered Mikados appropriate for shortline use. All will be decaled for my fictitious road. These take care of "mainline sevice". Still hoped for are a logging 2-4-4-2, and small two truck Heislers for the logging branch. The decapod should have the "grunt" to serve the coal mining branch. Also got in two more Matchbox 1937 IH trucks, one well along on a bash into a box truck. Who got the Weaver 2-8-0 molds? Any hope of them, like the W by B 4-6-0, being reoffered?
