i have the athearn DD40. the model is showing its age though. with the body too wide to fit the old open frame motors. both the bachmann and the athearn were great sellers so i think its about time they were retooled.

i agree with Ozzie that replacing the motors is the best idea. the mashimas dont draw much and have plenty of power. but its a big job.
i would fit 2 decoders and give them identical adresses but i dont know anything about how you would programme them. couls you programme them both symaltaniously?

yep microscale are good. they also sell microsol decal fluid which is very hard to come buy over this side of the pond. if you get the decals imported it mnight be a good idea to get a bottle of microsol and decalset(is that the name of the second one? mine ran out ages ago) at the same time.
