    History of All Kinds

    I think today should be a new day to go down in history...... I have just learned a new way to run my electric trains free of charge..... Meaning not paying a single penny for electricity..... It's easy.... Here's how it's done.

    What trains did you run today?

    I like the windows that are lit up on the inside of the Tomix. You can see the little seats how neat is that.

    What are you buying this Month?

    Wow you are always getting nice new trains, you must have a gazillion dollars. Do you collect mostly engines, they're always so detailed and always look great.

    Finally, Santafewillies layout thread - revived Feb 2026

    Ever thing looks great...nice work.... love the details...... Here's a thought, you said the back side of the Harrison's has details that can't be seen. So, if possible, cut the back ...end/side... off the Harrison's plumbing store off. Then turn it around and use it as a backdrop scenery piece...

    What trains did you run today?

    Running my HO Athearn Santa Fe - F7A. Running it just to test out the cars, I am putting all new KD couplers on them. Also hope to put some couplers on some engines also. And some older cars from a Dale Earnhardt commemorative train set, I'm guessing back in the 1980s. Also cleaning and oiling...
