Cranky The Crane Finally Arrives!

We just got the HO Scale Cranky the Crane. Made by Bachmann Trains. This is my affiliate link to buy Cranky the Crane on Amazon: http://amzn.to/1NUj5Qs

 

LIONEL O SCALE THOMAS

I actually do not know if people read this. I just opened another O Scale Lionel THomas the Tank Engine set (it was a store return) and as expected, the remote did not work. I saw a bunch of these returned. SO got them at a good price. Only part is the remote which I think is either a defective board or loose connection.

I am thinking of giving away one of the Thomas Locomotives if I can fix the remote. What do you think? Should I do a giveaway drawing? Let me know either on twitter or YouTube. I am still trying to figure all this social media stuff out. So if somebody says something I will know they read this.

Thanks!

New SKARLOEY NARROW GAUGE WITH FREIGHT

 

Finally the freight cars for Skarloey to pull. A blue box van, red box van, and open wagon. Very tiny! They are technically HO Scale (HOn3 I think) as they are NARROW Gauge – so they run on N Gauge track.

My layout in 2008

This is how my 4×8 HO scale layout looked when I posted this on YouTube April 18, 2008. Need to finally finish this. I’m thinking of doing some lives treats from the layout with trains running and play. But I want to get the scenery finished. Might do some videos of that as well

SKARLOEY – NEW!! Bachmann Narrow Gauge Locomotive

The NEW Skarloey Bachmann HO Scale Narrow Gauge (runs on N gauge track) has arrived finally! We just got this December 21, 2015. More videos coming with more details. We hope to get the box vans and open wagon as well. The retail prices are a bit ridiculous. Skarloey is $150 and the cars are $50 each! We found Skarloey on Amazon for $100

 

 

Spider-Man Bachmann Train

 

 

Found this for a pretty good deal on eBay. Has an F7A & B Locomotive with 3 box cars and 6 passenger cars. Not sure why Spider-Man is hauling around is arch-enemies?

HO, O, G Scale Comparison of Thomas, Annie, & Claribel

Now looking for N Scale version of Thomas with Annie & Claribel as well as TrackMaster and any other motorized versions.

Thomas won! But…

So Thomas has won this round of the Great Race and is champion – for now. I honestly thing both Gordon and Henry are the real fastest. I did not realize it until later but the transformers made by Bachmann are acting very inconsistent. Sometimes the engines would not even move! I am going to make a more reliable and fair course. But who wouldn’t be happy that Thomas won!
