thingiverse

I have had a but load of money tied up into g scale and ho scale trains and would up giving them all away if you know how much each loco costs the g scale are over $1000 each and i gave away about 20 of them same with my ho set because I no longer own my home and no place to put them except collect dust in a closet so they are all in a scale train museum in Mina-soda where a lot of people are enjoying them. so now I have figured out on putting a ho scale around the ceiling and walls around the apt and am in no mode to spend that kind of money again we can print everything on the 3d printers now I was never able to obtain a complete Santa fe Super Chief set with all the Pullman cars they was just not available till recently and even now the sets are way to expensive and are mostly unavailable All my train stuff was all Santa fe only nothing else for one reason when I was a child me and my sister rode on this Super chief so it is this reason I will not do any other train company's. here is a little info that took a lot of research since Santa fe was purchased by Amtrak then Burlington northern and is now BNSF very very sad that these luxury line trains are gone and is no more,so information and pictures are hard to get. First the Loco Is a F unit well Alco F units was designated for freight and Santa fe never used freight trains for passenger. Alco designations are P for passenger and F for freight They did use the Alco PA long nose units the confusion is because these are EMD FA and FB units Santa fe used both F and E units on the Super chief Line. The EMD E units and Alco P units are both the long nose Engines. EMD F stands for fifteen thousand pounds and E stands for Eighteen thousand pounds. Now the number of cars started out at 8 cars then later they increased to 12 cars so when people say there was 12 cars these was not 12 different cars it was the 8 cars and 4 additional cars of the same type with different designations. so hear are the basic 8 cars FA,FB engines can be powered or not included is bogies to replace the powered bogies The powered bogies are Athearnn dual axle does not matter which ones you buy they all the duel axle mount the same with the same diminutions. https://www.ebay.com/itm/Athearn-HO-Front-Rear-Power-Truck-Set-M-Blomberg-ATH46011/132788982457?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649 other parts https://www.ebay.com/itm/Athearn-HO-Worm-Bearing-Square-12-ATH40052/133119829951?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649 https://www.ebay.com/itm/Athearn-HO-Female-Coupling-SD40-2-4-ATH48061/193006313424?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649 https://www.ebay.com/itm/Athearn-HO-Worm-Gear-with-Shaft-Brass-6-ATHG40063/362310263841?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649 https://www.ebay.com/itm/HO-Scale-Athearn-90116-Dog-Bone-805-for-F7A-B-FP7-Rear-6-pcs/164192967563?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649 you will also nead the worm cover unfortunately you cant buy a complete set of bogies. The coupler boxes are for Kadee standard couplers or Bachmann Ez mate mark II. the cover is universal one side for Kadee and the other side for Bachmann. I have also included interiors so there are open and closed cars and engines. there is a little confusion on the sleeper cars I distinctly remember some of them being bunk bed style but no place can i find images for those and the sleepers do not match sleeper interiors mad by others ?. I have more train cars and locos made and ready to post soon.
