Wow:eek: And take a look at the next page. Even weirder. Nice find. Loren

Hi Duane:wave: Do you mean the sand carried by the locomotives? If so, the sand is for traction when the wheels slip. Like putting sand on a icy side walk. Loren

Hi Jaijef. I use these and they work great. http://www.zealot.com/forum/showthread.php?t=116550&highlight=gary Loren

Here is the table and trackplan for my industrial layout i will build this winter (2x12'). The track is ordered, (Atlas c 83) now i need to keep saving so i can start buying turnouts. Loren

Whatever you use or don't use, good luck and if I can help you, let me know. Loren

Steamhead, first off I do not work for this company or any thing like that. My wife happened to find it for me. Like I said, smoker rx worked for me when nothing else did. It has made quiting a lot easier. All natural and no nicotine. Just some pills you take. Do a web search for smoker rx. I am...

Well, it's been 5 days and i still haven't smoked. Feeling good about it and started on the layout today. I forgot to mention I am using a quit smoking aid called smoker rx. I tried all the other stuff before ( patches,gum, and so on ) and it did not work. This stuff is working for me and it is...

I am doing it mainly to keep my foot from being amputated due to plaque in my arteries from smoking. Loren

Steamhead, I will be glad to keep you all updated. Loren

Thanks all. Well, this is my third day of quitting smoking. Still trying. Russ, I did reverse that left hand turnout so that it points to the right now. I did lose a little run around length, but operation is a lot better. The longest train I will run will be 4 40' cars. Haven't started...

Depends on what you mean by wiring switches. I have used phone cable to wire Atlas switch machines, which are momentary. I would not use it for constant track power. To small. For track power, I use 20 gauge for the feeders and 18 gauge for the buss wire. Loren

Maybe it's a tourist railroad. Loren

Fine with me Ralph. Something interesting to learn about! Loren

Thanks Jesso, i have been smoking for 50 years, i hope i can do it this time. The layout is fun, i have been operating it using xtrk. Loren

Tuesday night (7/29/08 ) i will try to quit smoking again so i need something to keep me busy. I will build a small switching layout ( 2.5'x13' ) in the dining room. I found a trackplan here http://andrews-trains.fotopic.net/c374578.html called the 12th st and tuttle and modified it to my...

Delete this if you want to moderators. I have a plan with a small yard. Loren

That looks good Dr Wayne. It will be interesting to see how long they last. Do you think a glycerin treatment would help? Loren

Hello all:wave: I am planning a new garage layout, but probably won't start on it until next summer. So, i am going to built a 2'x13' switching layout to keep me busy during the winter, which i have never done before. My layouts have always been full sized. So, the first question is, if the...

Really nice. I like all the little details you added. Thanks for sharing. Loren

Wow Gary, glad to hear from you! You bet I have. Now all i need is the bucks to do it. The way things are, that's going to take awhile. Loren
