I'm with you Pete, I am picking two of these new LC+ 2.0 0-6-0T engines up on Monday. I've also turned three people away recently wanting to upgrade the old 0-6-0T and pointed them to the new LC+ 2.0 version. I couldn't even begin to convert one of the old ones for even twice the price for parts & labor, it seems pointless to do the upgrade.

I agree, even with no boards they sit on the shelf just fine.
