    So much effort. Result: Superb video! Took me a minute to get it: 'Horseshoe Mode'; LOL. Here's some help with the postage back.  Thank you for fun on the 4th!

    Ron, thank you so much. Honestly I teared up. It's the one locomotive he never got fixed. I'm forever grateful.  You need anything ,I'm only a phone away. Thank you,thank you ❤

    Ron I wanted to say thank you very much for getting my dads old locomotive running again. Im older than Norman and I havent even seen it run. I remember my dad taking it to the hobby shop a few times trying to get it repaired and they never seemed to bring it back to life. Your skill is indeed incredible. Thank you! 🙏

    Ron<br>You may not be a &quot;Lionel Master Mechanic&quot; BUT you are 1 hell of a trouble shooter. Absolutely well done. 👏 Norman and his kids will love it.

    See? Norman and I have something in common. We both like it when you work on our stuff, because we know, eventually, you&apos;ll get it done right. Masterful efforts on this one. Great job...

    It&apos;s good to see this locomotive come back to life after all these years of sitting non-operative. I don&apos;t have this locomotive in my collection, but I do have the MTH version of this locomotive, and I always found it to be a neat locomotive even though it was a one-of-its kind locomotive. Keep up the good work.

    Super. Thanks for keeping this legacy on the road. The 6-8-6 Turbine steam loco has always been a favorite of mine, and if it was mine, I would put the owners name on both sides of the cab and operate it both proudly and often. Well done. 💙 T.E.N.
