Tony: This is what your loco has become. It has a SOUNDTRAXX sound decoder & a CANON hi nose to resemble prototype, as it looked like in the early 70's, probably pulling the AZTEC EAGLE from Mexico City to Laredo/ TX.

Hi everyone. I'm enjoying a few easter days off, and I have taken some pictures of some of my custom painted locomotives. 

Most of them are craftmanship of Juan Aguilera, the equivalent of George Micklus in Mexico City. Juan besides being a superb modeler has been also one of my best friends for almost 15 years, I just wished he could have some more time to paint & decal the rest of my locomotives in a faster manner. 

Hello everyone.

My name´s Alejandro Ramirez Watanabe, from Mexico City; I'm modeling in HO scale since as long as I can remember. perhaps as many of my Northamerican counterparts I started in the hobby with a trainset (MANTUA/ TYCO) way back in 1972, when my aunt came back from a quick trip to L.A., & bought me the train as a birthday gift.

I remember I couldn´t sleep for several nights. I was amazed with all the details the little trains had.
