    I know you guys are getting tired of CSX questions, but I have another. Please help!

    Checked out my Walthers catalog Hey guys! I checked out my Walthers catalog last night, and Microscale makes CSX MOW decals for engines and cabooses. I also saw about two or three oranges I think might work. I can use the caboose decals to do the hoppers, and then just get some generic...

    CSX MOW paint Thank you Woodie and Gary! I appreciate your input! I'll try matching up reefer orange and some of the other ones with my Athearn stuff at my local hobby shop. Billk, the only railroad I know of that paints it's MOW engines differently is CSX. I have never heard of or seen...

    I know you guys are getting tired of CSX questions, but I have another. Please help!

    I know you guys are tired of hearing about CSX, but I have a question I hope someone can help me with. I am wanting to makeup a CSX MOW train. Athearn has all the cars I need in CSX's MOW orange EXCEPT an engine and ballast hoppers. I can do my own, no problem, but what paint should I use for...

    Thanks for the messages everybody! Pics of CSX paint!

    Paint Schemes I know this may sound nuts to some of you, but I like the Chessie System colors. I think that they look sharp. I think that a really well-weathered Chessie engine or a brand new Chessie engine right out of the shop both look pretty neat running around a layout.:D :D :D

    Sorry. No offense meant.

    My sincerest apologies to anyone who might have been offended by my poll about the new CSX colors. I meant no harm, and I used the words I chose to just try and put a humorous wrinkle into the poll. I guess nobody likes polls. Once again. I'm sorry if I offended anyone.:(

    Are you having FUN

    Am I having fun? Hey Shamus! I kind of go in spurts. If I want to work on my trains, I do. If I have something else to do, or just need a break, I do that, too. I am really putting off my next project, but I am running out of time to do it. Our new house is getting close to being...

    Inspiration

    railroading fun, CSX paint? Hi, CSXFan! Glad to see someone else out there who likes CSX and it's old lines. I guess I always liked watching trains, but I never got into model railroading until my father-in-law introduced me to it about 5 or 6 years ago. He is from Pennsylvannia, and he is a...

    WOW! Thanks!!

    Thanks to all you all out there for the advice! I've been into model railroading for about 5 years now, but I still consider myself a novice. I have been using Bachmann EZTrack on my small layout (nasty steel!), but we are moving into a larger house and this time I'm going to do it better, and...
