Are you crazy? [img] I've sold six layouts, five prebuilt and one custom built. The prebuilt ones sold easily at train shows (GATS) especially...
Lionel Operating Nuclear Reactor
Weathering and a few more details like a dozen newspaper vending machines; a grease pit and dumpster in back; a phone booth in the parking lot; a...
Boy, you weren't kidding! It's like he unloaded a store. 537 items listed. Here is a link to the stuff. I have no affiliation with this guy, and...
Sorry, but I don't agree. The price difference is going to be equal to a MT car or two at most. The Digitrax system will offer a world of...
Give us a clue!
Hey caseyboy94 (Scott Mclaughlin) did you ever find that fine scale ConCor caboose you were looking for here? Maybe someday you'll have a layout...
2.5" in N scale is 0.015625" in real life. A human hair is 0.00393701 in diameter, so the difference between the two is just under four...
Don't use the aquarium rocks. They're covered with gloss varnish, and I'm pretty sure the prototype isn't glossy. Better to find another source. I...

Thanks guys. Since I have two sets, I'll try each method and see which I like best...
I think the title says it all. Which MT trucks should I use on the Walther's well cars? We all know what tanks they are right out of the box...
It's all about heat! :mad: I had 25 watt spot lights - ten of them. That was equal to a 250 watt heater in my small train room. I switched...
Just an update on the aftermath. Another death has been reported. One pregnant lady lost her child, so in my book the death count is four. My wife...
I've been doing some research on cement plants for an industry I hope to model. I found a great web site with a virtual plant tour of a cement...
