I think I'm just going to get a bigger table next year. I may end up selling the Lemax stuff and getting a G gauge train anyway. Not sure.

Yeah, I thought about the libility insurance. The property thing is an issue but I'm sure I could work a deal out with one of the local parks as well. The city is always on the lookout for family oriented stuff. Thanks for the tip on the trailers!

I wonder if there is anywhere to find plans to build such a thing?

hhhmmmm..... That would help make the payments......

I'd rather have a used train. :D Seriously, It might be an interesting project next spring if I'm not totally flat broke.

I've had that plan going in my head for a year and a half. I'm guessing materials would probably end up costing me more than to have it made though. And I'd still have to buy the expensive parts, (Like the riding mower it uses for power.) I still might give it a shot someday.

Or even better yet, give me $12,000? sign1 I really want one of these: Trackless Trains I know it's not a REAL train but it would be fun to drive the kids around the neighborhood.

Man, I've been waiting for TS2 for over a year. Now I find out it might be at least another year??? C'mon Microsoft! Make with the goods already! :curse: wall1 The graphics look amazing though. FWIW, I still really enjoy TS1 :mrgreen:

It does a pretty good job close up. I've got some fantasic shots of my daughter with it. Well, I don't know how well it's really protected from the elements with just a roof. I think they do pretty good upkeep on her though. There's a couple of spots that look like she might be about due...

If you look here: http://forum.zealot.com/t152797/ I also have a pic of engine # 3003 which is a 4-6-4 in Burlington, IA I would have loved to see these old beasties run back in the day.

I know this has been awhile back, but if you really want to model that little station, go ahead and use the pics. She would make a great model and you're more than welcome to use them.

She's on static display in one of our town parks. 4-8-4 Engine #5614 It's taken me forever to getting pics of her just because I never have a camera handy when I happen to be in that neighborhood. I finally used my cell phone today and got some good shots of her.

I wish I was in Chicago. I'd love to get a good blues rock thing going.

What is the radius on Bachmann's EZ track? That's what we use for my daughter's HO set but a full turn is too wide for my table.

That looks like a great layout! I think my table is only about 26" The Lemax train just fit perfectly on it. Like an idiot, I went back to the store last night and bought another one. It doesn't run either. I finally said to heck with it and it's a static display now. Next year I'll...

I try to pop in when I can. I've been getting back into music again so I've been spending more time on the musicians' forums. I've found a great drummer. Now all we need is a good guitarist and singer. :D

I'm still SLOWLY working on the N scale layout. Well, that's not entirely true. It's about half done and I've been running trains on it now and then. sign1 I haven't done any actual work on it for several months now. I still have all the stuff from the O gauge layout. The track is boxed...

That train wrecked because it was ugly and no longer wanted to live. :eek:

Well, HO is out. I just laid some of my EZ track down and the curve is too wide for the table. Dang. Sorry to put you through all that, Josh. :( I think they have their own made up scale. It's not quite HO but bigger than N. I've been getting buy. :) Blood pressure is doing good...
