    What about a Depot thread

    strange one I didn't take these pictures, but AHIP (Age Has It's Privileges). I'm not breaking the rules that WHO DAT73 made, just bending them a whole lot. I came across these pics of the Grand Canyon Depot, built over a 100 years ago of logs, and still in use. Lynn

    Browsing The Gauge

    reading new posts This thread brings up a question in this inquiring (mind) of mine. I can understand those that go direct to their sub forum. But, if you read all the new posts, wouldn't that cover all you would get to read without going then to a sub forum? Am I missing something here, more...

    email Jeff, I copied all those steps, went thru them, and mine was set on instant email notification, but I never get any notification. It doesn't work for me. It used to a long time ago, then it quit. I'll have to keep checking back to see if I get a reply.:confused::confused::confused: Lynn

    Attaching unitrack to felt over MDF

    caulk I'm not sure what unitrak is, or what the bottom of it looks like. I use latex caulk for my "just plain" HO track. It takes a very small bead, then use your finger to flatten and spread, then set the track down. It should be plenty sticky to hold it in place. If not, a little weight for a...

    CSX...Please 'splain....

    Fuel economics If you take said locomotive, put a gallon of fuel in it, I believe it would in all probability run out of fuel before it got hooked up and moved anything. If one was to put that same gallon of fuel in a tractor, that tractor would be able to move freight at least some. Now...

    Old-Timer Needs an Opinion...

    Homosote I have used Homasote in the past and it works real good. For plywood under it, just use the cheapest, raunchiest you can get. Any ply will work, and the Homasote covers the ply. Then paint the Homasote real good to seal it enough that moisture from scenery won't swell it. It should...

    Slip switch?

    single/double slip From what I understand now, this must be a double slip because it can curve right/left, or go straight thru from all directions. It is too complicated for me, If anyone knows any kind of value I will put it in sale/rtrade column. Thanks for the info Lynn
