Or more probably when your back gives out when exiting a tunnel...

In General that sounds like it could be a good scenario.Daunt58 wrote:A "straight" (no pumpkin - no skeleton) version of the Halloween Special 4-4-0 would be ideal for the Wild West period Tim mentions.
Then you could have a Great Locomotive Chase scenario. (Chase after the stolen engine using the pump truck, then another engine in reverse while the dispatcher leaves sleepers and burning boxcars on the track ahead of you).
Modelling the Confederate cavalry at the end of the scenario might be a problem, though.
