Very nice !

I have no track layout yet, but have got myself some nice HO-track locomotives, and rolling stock. I plan to make a very early american track layout, maybe around before the civil war, or only a bit into it. Thinking of the old Mason, Rogers or Smith&Perkins engines, with inline cranks, ouside frames etc.. Certainly means a lot of kitbashing.
Found some nice older locos from Mantua/Tyco ('General' and 'Dixie Belle') which are nice and easy to change. Have hesitated though because they are now becoming 'classics' in a way themselves ..

Thanks and greetings,
Catfish
