Square D. I've worked with them. Another sparky then Peter? PaulE

I missed that, sorry for the late reply. Only little sparks, I was an electronic engineer, but at Square D I was the UK Product Manager for their range of proximity switches. Unfortunately their range was a load of not very good, so it was a reals struggle until Groupe Schneider took them over and merged my part of the business with Telemecanique. Square D were an interesting company, very profitable on the high current NEMA equipment, but not much good at the lightweight stuff.

Only brushed up against them re. 120VAC site prep. Not overly impressed, but adequate. PaulE

Hi Lee, awesome you can still use the older trailers, I am interested in trailer trains , got 20 spine cars and trailers, still have a set of 5 spine car to put together, I like long trains and model from the 90's to modern time . I have European trains as well as American and Australian trains like the Indian Pacific and Ghan ,TGV and ICE3 high speed passenger trains .Going to be a while before I run any trains, hopefully this year.

I found some old videos off of my old YouTube channel today. Here’s a Athearn Blue Box 9-44CW CSX with a mixed freight and Intermodal. The Seaboard System U33 was custom painted and decaled by me also the Athearn White Freightliner pulling the Reefer trailer was Custom Hand painted by me also wish I had those steady hands again. I’ll be loading more later.
