I have a question for you. 

 

I plan on building my table layout this summer and I like the look of scaletrax a lot but I have heard that they are not being made in abundance and are hard to find sometimes. Is that true?

 

Thanks!

 

Pennsy,

 

      I really don't know what the status is right now with ScaleTrax availability.  You can try Engine House Hobbies (www.Enginehousehobbies.net), Justrain.com or just call MTH directly and find out.  Sorry I can't help more.  Maybe someone else who knows can chime in.

 

Thanks, I'm really happy the way the fixed pilot turned out.  Here is a few more photos with a little weathering.  Just finished videoing these for the next DVD.

Chris,

Yes, That is the plan.  We already have a MTH F40 which we gutted and kitbashed into a Amtrak cabbage unit.  That will be the next unit to be painted.  I will need to custom make the Downeaster decals and the Genesis Phase V decals.  I have the HO scale decals as a starting point.  Will scan and scale them up to 1/48.  Our layout will have North Station with 4 tracks.  The Garden and the Boston skyline as a backdrop for that section of the layout.   We already have 9 Lionel Amfleet cars.  4 of them will be used for the Downeaster.
