Neat little Minitrix bash!  Gotta love the E6...  well proportioned and built for speed.

Do you think we should e-mail Victor Miranda from the "A" board? ;D

Yeah, do it, except do it as a pm and not a post to the board or else you run the risk of censure.

Wonder if he'll bite on getting it.  Gotta admit the person who is selling it is at least honest in it's pulling ability.  Also mentioned it's not DCC compatible - got a feeling is you wanted DCC it could be done somehow - nice empty tender there.

I doubt if he'd bite - it's so obviously a shortened K4 shell.

He posted over on the A-board and he did place a bid on it.

thanks for the heads up about the Atlantic.
I had stopped going to e-bay because I kept buying odds-n-ends
I didn't really need.

I've been comming here to read yall for a while now.
Just wanted to say thanks.

Did you win the bid?  When i saw this I was thinking of your always requesting an Atlantic.  If you won, please let up know how it runs.

Hi Bob Bufkin,
no, I am not willing pay 120 plus dollars.

I've requested an atlantic because it has not been done in n-scale.
I'd like the biig PRR version, most any kind will do...

I hadn't keep up with the auction and didn't know what it finally went for.  Myself - I want an I-1 so bad I can taste it but don't want to pay the asking price for the brass ones out there.

Hi Bob Bufkin,

hmmmm I wonder what kind of comment on n-scale in general
that for both the E and I classes we are talking about
the same loco shell is the best starting point?

well... I can wish for new castings....
