ATHEARN-Diesel AMD-103 P42 Powered - DCC Ready



Power For Modern Amtrak® Passenger Trains

Don't miss out on these limited-run Amtrak GE Genesis P-42s. Produced exclusively for Walthers by Athearn, these detailed models wear the 2005 and later Amtrak Phase V paint scheme and unique roadnumbers. Other features include a smooth-running motor with dual flywheels, great paint and lettering, etched-metal dynamic brake grilles and working knuckle couplers. These locos are perfect for hauling metal-plated Walthers Superliner® cars.


HO Model Railroad Layout


This is a 5x8 HO scale layout called Granite Gorge and Northern from an old Atlas layout book. I began this eight years ago and the only thing that is not finished is the scenery. Two main lines run at the same time on this wonderful layout. This includes all nickel-silver track with 11 power selector switches and 12 turn switches. All are automatic. It includes two power supplies which are a Sound and Power 7000 and a Tech 3 Power Command 9000. The former makes real diesel and steam locomotive sounds. There are over 25 cars included (see photos). Two are the locomotives. One is a Athearn Union Pacific diesel and the other is a Bachman Southern Pacific steam. Both locomotives run as new.

This layout uses a "deformed plywood top" rather than a plain "flat top" so that the track has a gentle grade as though it is traveling up and down a mountain. A river even runs down the center of it! It took many hours cutting all the grid work under the plywood. It rests on six legs which are attached with bolts and wing nuts. It can easily be dissasembled and either put in a pickup or van. It is easily transportable because it is hinged at the center.

I cannot ship this because the bridges on the layout are too fragile. If someone wanted it so badly for me to ship, I could ship it but I would have to pack up all the bridges and you would not be able to see it work when you came to pick it up. This would have to be worked out after it is purchased.

Also included is a Red Mountain Mine building and a mountain portal. All the man hours, wood, trains, track, and electronics are worth well into the thousands. I have kept this covered in my garage so that it is in excellent condition. This would make a wonderful hobby for someone who would like to build scenery. I am selling all of it; not just a few trains.

Walthers #5338 Bethgon Coalporter Gondola 6 Pack CSXT


HO-SCALE
BRAND NEW
by WALTHERS
Gold Line(TM) Bethgon Coalporter Gondola Ready to Run 6-Pack -- CSXT #3 (black)
A recent innovation in coal gondola technology, the BethGon Coalporter(TM) gondola can be seen on railroads across the country, with more than 10,000 cars in service. Built by Bethlehem Steel's Johnstown American Corporation, the BethGon features all-aluminum construction and a unique trough-style bottom for added carrying capacity. Because there are no discharge chutes on the bottom of the car, these cars are unloaded strictly by rotary dump. With these new models, you'll be able to model a unit train in minutes. The six-packs come ready to run, and each car features a different number. The cars are sharply detailed, with the authentic trough bottom and a hidden weight for better operation.
These HO Scale Gold Line freight cars come fully assembled and include a complete set of add-on wire grab irons; molded drill starter points on the body simplify installation. End cars are fitted with working knuckle couplers; intermediate cars feature dummy knuckle couplers. Free-rolling trucks with RP-25 metal wheelsets round out each car.
