Gentlepersons:
I have bought several AF and Flyonel passenger sets and have always tried to
get an extra B unit (e.g. my NYC has a double B but I didn't buy one for my
SF and Pennsy consists). It appears that longer is better based on prior
messages especially when you throw in a couple of Bs plus a freight car for
all of the excess baggage. Its just that my layout wont take much beyond a
twelve car consist without having to put in a cross over and play touch and
go. And storing them on a wall shelve gets sort of dicey too since length
becomes a major issue unless you want to split them up. I have a 22 foot
wall but windows and doors get in the way. So while I think more is better
especially if the B units are glorious Santa Fe F units, I really wonder
what is the max number of A and B units that where run together on 'real'
railroads. This would put a limit on my acquisition attempts for B units in
the future because I would know how much horsepower that railroads would
stack for their real operational needs.
Regads,
Joe Haughney
