On a related note, anybody know where I might find an old-fashioned fishing boat?

You guessed it.:mrgreen:

This all looks pretty neat. Hey nkp174, when I started reading your post I thought for a moment you were referring to a different Big Four (go ahead, ask me which Big Four).

It's easy if you have a firm grip(or needle-nosed pliers).

Well, you can slip on plastic joiners at the ends of a block and include a power terminal track in the block. Plug that in and you're good to go.

This topic, while interesting, doesn't really belong in HO Scale Model Trains.

#6170 looks impressive. Cool about it having proper pulling power too.

It does not, however, belong in "HO Scale model trains."

Doesn't seem to work.

Well, I intend to build a Skarloey Railway(narrow-gauge) to put in my miniature Sodor. N-scale track and chassis, HOe-size engines.

The plastic roadbed that the E-Z Track I use comes in.

Is this what you meant? http://www.pegnsean.net/~railwayseries/thomas.htm It happens to be the same site. Funny ol' world, isn't it?:) Well, the ability to fold when not in use may still allow you to build it. And even if you don't do that one, you could still use Thomas, Percy, Toby, and Mavis...

Hmm. Does it always have to be 2' by 6', or can it be 4' x 6' when in use and 2' by 6' when not? There are folding layouts, and here's one I'd like to do: http://www.pegnsean.net/~railwayseries/rm-1959-12.htm As long as you don't mind using Thomas stuff, it's great.

Well, if you have a straightedge you can cut construction paper stripes and glue them on.

:eek: That is awesome. I like that there are passenger trains on this layout.

Cool layout.

Well, Bachmann's pictures of their Thomas, James, and Percy models are out of date, and somewhat off. Especially James(open cab vs. solid cab). :p

Well, Thomas doesn't exactly fit any of the above categories, so I picked Other.

Cool.
