I was lucky enough to pick up a Bachmann On30 Shay this weekend, a model I've been after for years. My layout isn't yet operational, so the dining room table test track made an appearance. The sound is a fantastic edition and the quality of it even on DC is superb. The running gear of this locomotive is hypnotic, I could watch it all day. Such an impressive model with loads of as standard factory detail. An interesting feature of later DCC chips (that I wasn't aware of until today, at least) is that they recognise when they're running on DC or DCC automatically! No need to install the dummy plugs in the 8-pin holder, what an excellent idea! #On30 #7mm #narrowgauge
