Quote: Oh! Since I have you by your tufted ears ;-) What kind of a lion sized bribe would it take to get a couple of pics of the engines in one of your trains?

No bribe at all. Though you won't get to see much of the traction motor and gearing, as they are hung off the axles and totally enclosed. I'll see if I can find a local RR shop that has a traction motor that is sitting by itself, or on a truck (wheel set) that is sitting by its lonesome out from under a loco. No promises though. :=/
I'll see if I can make Dragon*Con, though MFM, which is the same weekend, has more appeal. ;=/
As far as not being able to chat long, don't worry about it. I understand that you were in the middle of your workday. Thanks for taking even that small part of your day just to gab for a bit.
Of course you can always call me at 856-625-2770 anytime. ;=3
