I see you have managed to purchase the PRR T1 pack, be warned tho: the pack is terrible with the sounds. Incorrect whistle and bell, and same for the sound. Way to inaccurate. What sucks, is you cant modify it!
 
Circa 1943: UP 836 rumbles up Cajon Pass with her string of passenger cars in tow, carrying army soldiers and equipment for the war effort over the Santa Fe's Cajon Pass. Ahead of her, SP GS-2 #4415 is on temporary assignment to ATSF trackage for an urgent war freight from San Bernardino bound for the east coast. The 836 has been granted special permission to travel at a top speed of up to 65 mph, and was supposed to overtake the Golden State by the time they reached the Mormon Rock formation, however the 4415 is no slouch when it comes to speed either. Both locomotives finally made it to the summit by noon, and now the only real question is who reaches Barstow first.

Autumn is in the air and the farmers are starting to ship them in. Also in the consist is a few boxcars of special smoking wood and cases of honey to get ready to cure the Christmas hams.
