    Foam and flex-track

    I use white glue (good ol' Elmers) to fasten my Peco flex track to my WS foam roadbed, and it works great! (also comes up easily in case you make a mistake or decide to change something)

    HO signs

    I was going through some of my old HO stuff recently; and I found a pack of WS HO scale dry transfers of road signs and Burma Shave signs. My layout is set in the 60s, so I know that I can't use the Burma Shave signs, but could I still use the traffic signs, even though I'm in N scale now?

    I need a new soldering iron, but I can't afford one right now. Is there any way to connect flex track WITHOUT soldering it?

    Tim Allen rotary tool

    I have a rotary tool that's sold under the name TIM ALLEN SIGNATURE TOOLS (no; it's not made by BINFORD TOOLSsign1) that I bought from e-bay. But the only problem is; it came without accessories (I bought it that way because the guy told me that they're easy to get). But, they're not!! Anyone...

    What is the Best N Scale Track?

    yes; I agree about Peco turnouts; they're GREAT!! And they have those sprung points; so they're 100% reliable!!!

    How long have you been a model railroader?

    when I was little, back in the early 60s, my Dad set up an HO layout in our basement. It wasn't very much, just 1 piece of plywood painted a shade of green with a figure 8 of track (all code 100 with brass rail of course-this was the early 60s!:grin:) with a bridge and a set of Atlas trestles...

    Peco flex-track

    Does anyone make ties for this? I cut a tie off the end of a length of it; and it fell in the trash. Needless to say; it's lost. If noone makes them; no biggie. I'll just use a piece of styrene or cut a tie off of a piece of my Atlas track.

    Woodland Scenics Foam Putty

    I just sent for some of this. However; it has a use by date of 10/2005. Is it still OK to use? Also, it seems to be semi-hard. How can I soften it?
