    Looks like you've got the perfect sizes for outdoors and indoors! Good thing they're equipped with snowplows.

    You know, if G scale were 1:1, it kinda looks like the N scale loco would be G scale to the little engineer guy in the cab...

    I was looking at those photos again (more drool) and I noticed that it appears that the shelf is bending from the weight. Is it bending or is it an optical ilusion?

    The more layout I have, the less lawn I have to mow, right?

    the engines are around 20lbs. probably not enought to bend the shelves.
