Boy, Reinhard, you're certainly not wasting any time developing the industrial area and it's always nice to see the opening of a new GERN facility.
You're certainly right about the Bachmann Consolidation, but I'm surprised by your experiences with the Ten Wheeler. I have two of them (currently "under construction"
) and found them to be nice runners right out of the box.

I did run one of them today from 9am until 2pm and the engine is much better now. Another one is on the tracks now and may run until Dinner. That is important to know because the Spectrum 2-8-0 from Bachmann is a very smooth runner out of the box.
