A dog of course you silly! :p

Woof!

I play God or Goddess depending on your take... I dress up like Aphrodite and prance around my layout while burning incense and throwing rose petals in the air. Nothing but love for my own little world and the people who inhabit it. Once in a while I play Zeus though and start chucking...

That looks like fun. Makes me want to build a module for my local club and take it shows to set it up.

Dude! This post was just AWESOME!!! :mrgreen:

Cork has a tendency to dry up and become brittle and crumble over time. It's what I used though when I started my efforts. I glued it down gave it a good coat of paint after I glued my ties to it though. So far it seems to be holding up well for my hand laying. It does seem rather noisy...

Agreed. I don't mind paying for the parts (I ordered five pairs yesterday) at all. I also understand that as a business they also have to protect themselves from unscrupulous or "cheap" customers who don't think they should have to pay for anything. Besides, this over a year now...I think its...

Hype or not, I'll mark it in my calender. Thanks!

That is coming along nicely. There is something quite appealing about being able to build a layout on a door.

But the real question is...Does it come in Diesel?

Sorry to resurrect such a an old thread. However, I've had one of these bad boys in the box for over a year now and finally got around to wiring up a decoder for it. It is exhibiting the same problems as a couple of my other locos were. So I e-mailed Walthers to find out if they still fell...

I still leave them alone. I found a big black spider hiding near the floor behind some of my bench work structure when I was vacuuming the other day. Never touched her. Just vacuumed around the area and carefully swept up the rest. I figured she was probably protecting an egg sack. While...

Welcome Home! That picture inside the plane is just awesome too. On a related note my bro just got home from Afghanistan to say we happy he is home safe and sound is an understatement. My hat is off to those who serve both our respective countries overseas.

Happy B-Day Mike!

So I've been pretty busy this weekend with family stuff, not much going on in the development side of things. Although, I reeeeeally want to get some structures up I don't want to just slap stuff together for the sake of doing so. I repaired that damaged throw bar to like new condition...

http://www.scarborough-model-railroaders.org/Schedule.html The Scarborough Model Railroaders Club is having their open house the following weekend. I always plan a visit there. I may go myself to the X-mas show. Just to see what I can pick up from the various vendors who sell there.

No worries Dude! :thumb:

Hmm....only if I've been excessively "rough" with them. Today for instance, I didn't back the caboose completely through the turnout and threw the points. The pressure of the flange getting caught inbetween the rail and the point caused the copper cladding to shear off the fibre glass...

Thanks for the kind words gents. They are very much appreciated. Next step is the planning of and starting to building some structures. I'm going to try scratch building or kit bashing most of them. I picked up an air compressor at Crappy Tire the other day for like 90 bucks. Seemed like...

Giddy Up! I finally received my Auto Reversing Unit in the mail today and without hesitation installed it for the double x-over. I must say though that it was not without some technical difficulties. In fact I will freely confess that out of all of the gaps required to isolate the...
