Reply to "How Many Mix Diesels On Your Train Runs"

I model the Erie Lackawanna and its processors so I'm obligated to model a mix just about every major locomotive manufacturer in a whole lot of configurations. I love running a mixture of freight and passenger paint schemes of Erie , Lackawanna and EL in consists. I even get to mix it up with the D&H of the Dereco/N&W days. These are the consists that I remember as a youngster, and when my sons were youngsters as well, and living along the Scranton division. What fun! For that reason I have accumulated quite a few non-powered units (A&B cabs, Es & Fs, and hood units) so that I don't have to worry about mixing TMCC or DCS in a consist. If you have seen a photo of EL trains with a mix of power, I can imitate it. It always raises questions about my eclectic mix of power from visitors to our club layout and I get to teach a history lesson....one of the reasons I am a model railroader. I love it.
