  Thanks for the ride. We only visited once, a year ago today, Narrow Gauge Meet had just finished up but Jim was still running. Took me a few minutes to orient myself as to where you were running as we never rode any trains, I rode my bike around and checked it out. We are determined to return.

  Would you recommend an RMI to someone starting out in the hobby? Would you consider them a reliable alternative to building an engine?

• 
  @Tank2452 ай бұрын

  Probably not recommend one to a new person but I guess it depends on your situation. If you buy an RMI engine you're looking at around $40,000-$70,000. As for someone starting out in the hobby, well, If you want a BIG engine then go for it. But they are a handful and might be a little challenging for someone that doesn't know how to transport or re rail something that big.

  There certainly good locomotives, but as mentioned previously they are massive and subsequently hard to move around. I'd suggest looking for a good secondhand 1.5" scale locomotive as almost anything smaller than a pacific can be put in a pickup bed and moved around quite easily.

  @@natehill8069 it does reduce scale, but boiler treatment also is an oxygen scrubber, and removes oxygen from the water to help prevent corrosion. As long as you're using boiler treatment, it doesn't really matter what kind of water you're using.

  I kept hoping that *someday* trains will run again out to Banks. In November 2023, the weeds were cleared along the tracks parallel to US 26 near Banks, so I had a glimmer of hope. Those hopes died on December 13, 2023, when we drove along 26 again, and the ties and rails have now been yanked-up.

•

  It is sad. But I've never had hope the line would reconnect with banks. Too much money to repair a line that would never repay that cost of repair. The silver lining is the washout saved the coastal portion from the same fate and has allowed us to run steam excursions for 20 years.

  @@matthewgustafson5225 our trackage rights end at the end of the runaround in Enright. The tracks are open all the way to Batterson, albeit trains are not permitted across the Nehalem River bridge in Wheeler, only MOW and speeders, until we secure funding for the repairs to the bridge. Beyond Batterson, there is a small bridge that needs replaced that was majorly damaged in a 2015 storm. Beyond that, the tracks are open to Salmonberry.

  Side by side, they're very similar in size, the boilers are almost exactly the same length, but the 2-8-0 has a longer frame. The Mogul was built oversized for what it is. The biggest difference is the mogul is much lighter with it's thinner copper boiler, and the connie is quite a bit heavier with a thicker steel boiler.

  @@Tank245 Sure, its a pain, and in fact until I started hanging around with live steamers I always assumed I would use propane cause its so simple and clean. But I dont like having the propane car between me and the pax. If I could run it on Diesel or kerosene and store the fuel in the tender since its more dense that would be good. But I like the authenticity of coal, particularly the smell. Reminds me of when I was a kid standing on the highway overpass with my grandfather and the trains would go underneath and the steam would cut off on one side and start up again on the other and you would smell the coal.
