That's great news! Can't wait to see it run. I hope 3985 doesn't get put on the back burner. It would be great to see them run together...
Enjoy

Yipes, I better get down to Fairplex and check her out before she is gone. Are they using snap-track? There is no railroad within about a quarter mile now.

What did the Fairplex museum get for giving up their Big Boy? It was the star of their museum.

I'm not sure if it's true or not, but i heard a rumor they were exchanging passenger cars for the big boy.
