Description
I never really got into chasing the CSX F40 set too much but this year on the way to the Goo Goo Dolls concert I got locked in on their location and decided to get them.Here we have CSX 9993 and CSX 9999. CSX did leave the Amtrak marker lights on them to.
The sign on the cab cracks me up, I never seen an occupied sign on the door of a cab door.

I got a big break to get my nikon in the form of a $4000+ refund from my college. I've put over $800 in this camera to. But I still use my Fujifilm S5200 for a lot of my train shots because I really don't need to use my DSLR in broad day light to get a good shot.

The Occupied sign is used to denote people occupying a camp car. When this sign is up, nothing can be coupled to the equipment displaying this sign.

I have a model of this, but I need to add detail parts to it.

Walthers actually.

Is Walthers an expensive well detailed set like athean?
I'm asking this because I've never paid attention to the Walther's brand.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
No, it's pretty basic. It's good for custom detailing, though, because there's no cast on detail to cut off.
I'm talking about their "Trainline" brand. They also own the Proto 1000 and 2000 lines from Life-Like now, that's good as it always has been.

You know at one time I was planning on taking old HO scale sets that didn't work anymore and converting them to push trains for my own model layout but the fact they wouldn't run would kind of gut the point.

You could make them dummy engines. I traded off all my dummies and now I'm regretting it. I'm hoping to pick up a couple at train shows.

Yea I have a habit of being that guy who will pick up a dummy engine as long as it looks alright body wise. Also dummies are normally free from collectors who just normally want to throw them out so if their just going to throw them away I'll definitely take them.

I wish people would give me free dummies.

Seems like they'd be easy to find I'd just look for someone who is throwing stuff out.

The occupied sign appears to be just a local artistic addition to the blue flag, denoting that somebody from the crafts is either on, under, between, or otherwise in a location that could be deadly if the train were moved. I like the cheek of it.
