I have sold some train stuff on ebay because I need to trim down to just G gauge for our big move. I have sold train stuff on ebay in the past and never had an issue. But this time my mom and I decided to sell under my mom's general seller account because I turned my account into a business...

Oopsie on the train tracks.

I am glad you guys like them. Yes, To me its like the wagons have jewelry-grade wheels here. I was thrilled by these wheels when they arrived in the mail. They're heavy and shiny.

I finally received the metal wheels I have been begging the universe for. I selected USA TRAINS POLISHED METAL WHEELS. These basically have the appearance of Chrome... And I am not going to be painting them or making them appear prototypical because they basically cause the rolling stock to take...

Oh yeah, Atlas Century is a little nicer than anything tubular just on account of what it is... I have considered this Atlas track, though have yet to bite mostly because of limits on what I can afford and funds being eaten by higher priorities. Actually, one of my local hobby stores...

How about a new post about a classic argument? I have a layout featuring N, HO, O and G trains all in a 8 x 12 foot area. I just like the different characteristics of the different size model trains. I have also been one to like trying different track systems for each size. I like the different...

I have begin to slowly collect these square-ish Piko Ore Jennies. I get them at Onlytrains, RLD, Trainz.com etc. They automatically come with plastic wheels which is OK to start, but I insisted on ultimately fitting them with metal wheels, which I finally got a chance to order and I am patiently...

This youtube video is one thing that inspires me. I have G gauge myself, because G gauge is pretty good for having trains quietly fly down the track at very expeditious speeds. I asked a bunch of commenters on this youtube video with the speed train on it, what would happen if there were two...

An old piece of O gauge rolling stock was draped perpendicular over the tracks when a freight train led by a GP38 slammed into it with great force. The ancient box car was no match for the diesel, and was destroyed on impact.

Looks like some high end HO locomotives there. I recently got myself a Mehano steam HO 2 6 0 that is not that high end perhaps but it is very nice for how affordable it was... $47! I had been ignoring my HO stuff for awhile and most of the time it was put away in drawers. I feel proud to have...

I model in O gauge 3 rail. I had a rather large collection of hodge-podge random used O gauge rolling stock and a few locomotives I was tired of. When I bought a G gauge set I decided to shift focus onto that, and so I sold a lot of my less beloved O gauge stuff... But after I did that I was...

Okay. I am not sure if this locking up started specifically after I added the roll of pennies, or if it was destined to happen regardless. Because, you don't have to get into the axle box to add a roll of pennies... I don't know if I caused this problem to begin with but I did tinker with it so...

I had actually run across this before online but simply forgot. That is quite a beautiful product, and its design is something that, to some extent, later products from Gargraves and Atlas wound up serving. I don't remember what it was, but if I recall, Lionel Super O was a commercial failure...

Maybe. I definitely don't have much to argue about the tradition of 3 rail and its appreciation. I think what my real intentions were was that, should a 3 rail track with a really low profile central rail become available, some people might enjoy that. But I can get behind the idea that it...

Thread. Not threat. It was supposed to say "Thread". And I enjay my idea of a low height 3rd rail!
