Sweet, thanks for all the input guys. Sounds like the gun may be a good way to go. I will take special note of those tips and let ya know how it goes. Thanks again to everyone!!:)

Guys, I did a search on Hot glue and didn't come up with exactly what I was looking for. I'm securing cork to foam and then track to cork. Right now I'm using a glue to secure both. Problem is, it takes forever to cure. 4-5 hours. Ive seen liquid nails recommended as well as a hot glue gun. What...

Very nice work!

MJ you make a good point, although Im not a fan of steam, It seems to me that there was alot more personality in a coal burner. (ie...sound and sight) from their whistle, to their "pfff,pfff,pfff" chugging sound, to the sight of the massive drawbars in action. When you think about that...

I certainly dont intend on it turning into one. I guess I just said something the wrong way and again for that I am very sorry and take full resposibility. The last thing on earth I want to do is cause an argument. I never intended for anything I said to be taken that way at all. On that...

Exactly who did I disagree with? Here were my two responses: 1. Again, please understand, I'm not saying that watching loco's is the only form of railfanning, I was just simply pointing out a small aspect of the railfanning experience from a railfan veiwpoint 2. Sheesh, I didn't think...

O.K. First to clear the air, I'm not upset at those who dis-agree or upset period for that matter. Yes, in my first post I ask that question, that question was "did anyone agree or disagree that the loco's are getting boring or losing personality" not "are locos the only form of railfanning"...

Again, please understand, I'm not saying that watching loco's is the only form of railfanning, I was just simply pointing out a small aspect of the railfanning experience from a railfan veiwpoint.

Sheesh, I didn't think this would go this way. I'm well aware that railroading is a business in the corporate world. This is why I placed the following sentence at the end of my post, This is just purely from a railfan perspective. I will continue to be a railfan when there are SD100mac's...

Cool, thanks!

O.K. Ive grown up around Southern/NS rails. I recall when I was younger seeing consists of SD 40-2's, GP 35 High nose's, GP 38-2's, u-boats and a few C motors and of coarse sd50's and 60's. Plus many many more. Now I still see a big variety of loco's but it just seems like those days of...

Wish I could help but I will be interested to hear the results. I have 40 pcs. of code 55 and Peco's fresh from ups on the doorstep at home. I had not heard the "rail buried in the tie" bit. I'm pretty sure there are no issues but like I said, we'll see:D . Godspeed:thumb: .

Sweet, look forward to seeing those pics. How come you didn't just tack this on to "THE" thread:D ?

Scooby, I'm fairly new here but I just saw this thread. I thank the Lord that things are going better. I will continue to remember your family in prayer. Godspeed!

Thank you! I know I'm ready to start laying track. I gotta get some trains rollun. I have become kinda partial to my CP motor I just bought. Kinda strange coming from someone who use to work for Norfolk Southern.:D

O dear, what have I done?:cry:

Looking great!

Sweet! Nice work!

Yeah, your exactly right. This is definately the easy part, even so, I can still make an easy job hard.:mad: . I just keep telling myself that it will all be worth it when them trains start rollin. Actually, I dont know how many square feet I have but that would be an excellent stat to figure...

Thanks for the compliment. As for the wind, theres enough of that in there without the fan:D . Thanks again!
