After many years of searching, and a few more months of waiting until Christmas, I finally have my holy grail of mth tinplate, the Red 256!
I have been hunting for this at a reasonable price for at least 5 years. And as life would have it, I got so busy this fall I forgot to buy a replacement for the battery. So yesterday, living north of York, I made a quick phone call to J and W, and drove down to pick up bcr 2 in person.
So this morning, before the kiddos woke up, a quick swap was made, and away we go!
This simple around the tree action is just so satisfying to me it's unreal. I just love it, and can't wait to set up on dcs and pull the full train. Thanks for letting me geek out a little!
