[CBQ] Milwaukee TrainFest Report (for N scalers)

["j_bonkowski" <jbonkowski@psemi.com>]

In N scale CB&Q news from Trainfest:

Intermountain had samples of their F3 graybacks.  They looked nice,
but darker than their HO cousins.  Taking into account that N scale
items need to be lighter colored than larger scales, they looked
really dark to me.  And it was a brownish kind of darker, not just a
darker gray.

Precision Craft Models had a sound equipped E7 running in a loop.  I
thought it looked and sounded good.  I wish I had pre-ordered both
with sound now, instead of 1 with and 1 without.  Perhaps upgrading
will be possible, either with PCM parts or replacing the decoder with
a sound equipped one.

There were probably others that I missed.
