    angels on track

    Just looked at this post. I have to say anything to increase gradecrossing safety awareness is a good thing. There are to many un-aware or un-thinking drivers out there. That being said, here I go, and I hope I don't offend anyone. Just in my experience, most rail vs. automobile and rail vs...

    Logical Yard Design

    Just my two cents. I have seen so many layouts that are all yard and swtiches and wires and.......... My experience is with the full size railroads just as much as modeling. In most cases, less is better. But to each his own. Model railroading is an art. Everyone interprets thier art in...

    Wintertime Fun!

    This afternoon I dissasembled and degreased the loco. Changed the position of the throttle so the radius of it's throw will work with the r/c servo. Took some measurements. And of course polished some brass!:D You know I could not resist. Went down to the local giant orange hardware store...

    It's soo darn cold........

    Right now it is 0 degrees. A large frost heave has taken out my mainline. I can't fix it till the ground thaws out some. Almost makes me want to put some trains indoors.

    Your favorite model railroad injury ?

    Where do I start? I guess with the one that left the bigest "impresion".:D I was doing the garden crawl. On my belly, hands , and knees. Soldering the Code 332 rails together. This requires substantial heat. Whell, I have several joints done quite nicely and I'm moving right along, making...

    Glue???

    Just thought I would add my 2 cents. I use ACC (superglue) on almost everything. I model extensively in wood. The structures on my garden railway have to stand up to the weather (New England) year round. Rain, snow, heat and no problems. The oldest building has been out there for over 10...

    Is it true??

    Crazy, crazy for playing with my trains! So what if some folks think I'm a bit out of the ordinary... who cares? I don't care for thier opinion. Besides crazy is in the eye of the beholder. I am perfectly normal, in my profesional opinion.
