3M Scotchbrand anti-slip material on footboards and deck
I scratchbuilt the cabless "B" unit to match up with the "A" unit. It has two RMI 1/2 hp electric motors, RMI controller, fly cranks and siderods, operating headlight on each end, and two 6" speakers that play sound from the sound card in the "A" unit.
Each of the units will operate individually on their own or can be MU'ed to run together (which is what I built them to do and how I run them). When running together the lashup has four 1/2-hp electric motors powering eight axles for a total of 16 powered wheels. Each unit has four 12-volt deep cycle, no spill, batteries and all batteries are on a common buss between both units so that power is drawn evenly from all batteries. Also included is a Lestronic II 25-amp 24-volt battery charger that will charge both units simultaneously.
Price is $ 10,900 for both units delivered to the MLS Spring Meet in March. For additional information contact Bill Laird at Bill-Laird@satx.rr.com or 830-935-4752. 03/07/08

For Sale: 7 1/2" gauge 4+4 Beam Engine and tender with two 7 1/2 foot bench
type riding cars equipped with Tom Bee trucks and couplers. Pneumatic brakes on all cars.
Current SVLSRM boiler certificate on a 12" diameter vertical steel boiler, propane
fired, with 306 3/8" diameter copper fire tubes. Twin cylinder double acting engine with
Stephenson valve gear and a bore and stroke of 2"x2.75" driving 4.375" diameter wheels
through a 20% overdrive. Drive chains are tight at all times. There is a constant
speed universal joint in the center of each truck to allow movement while keeping the
drive chains tight. The engine weighs about 400 pounds with eight driving wheels
arranged in two four wheel trucks. I haven't found a track or turn I couldn't handle.
The suspension is very flexible, rock solid on the rails and the engine has a working headlight.
Asking $10,500.
The train is set-up on a new two wheel trailer for towing with a car or small pick-up
truck. I estimate the weight of the complete train and trailer at about 1000 pounds. This
engine is a runner, fast, with exceptional pulling power and is very easy to run, very forgiving.
You can check and adjust either firing or water level in about two seconds. Because of having
a vertical boiler the engine does not require any additional inputs to fire up, just open the
valve on the propane tank and light the burner after you fill the boiler and water tank with
water. The train and trailer are located in Reno, Nevada.
