1/87th Vehicles
I don't have a layout yet but I'm buying trains and gear as I can afford it. I read this thread and thought I might as well buy a few 40's to 60's cars for my layout when I can. I went to both of our local Wal-marts and neither had Matchbox or Hot Wheel cars in 1/87 scale. I went out to a large... -
Pass or Fail "Grades"
Have you ever topped a mountain road and started down and see the warning sign of "3% grade for next 3 miles"? This might be something new for those of you in Florida or Kansas. ;) (I was born and raised in FL, whose highest point is Britton Hill at 345 feet, so I can get away with that... -
Modified Central Midland - Test Run
Looking gooooood!! I can't wait to see more of your progress. Seeing photos of works in progress like yours keep me motivated and helps me in my planning process. I was looking in the background of some of your photos and I noticed your train display case. What are the trains in the bottom... -

Ebay prices.. WOW!
There are two things you need to check on ALL E-bay auctions before you make the first bid. 1) The sellers feedback. I don't mean just the percentage, ie..85% or 95%...but what the 5% to 15% negative buyers have to say and how the seller responds to their negative feedback. If the buyer states... -

Modified Central Midland - Test Run
I like what you have accomplished with your modified Central Midland. I have spent a lot of time the last few days looking at books to help me decide what layout to install into the space I cleared out in the basement. I liked the Oregan Pass Line (HO 36) in the Atlas book #14 but it was... -
Starting the new layout!
You have to select the scale that you want to print from the print menu. A 1 equals 1:1. The lay-out will then be divided up into rectangles (sheets of paper) You then click on the lay-out for what sections (pages) you want to print. Say you only want to print the track out and not the empty... -
Starting the new layout!
First things first....this is a wonderful lay-out. I read all nine pages and was wishing for a total track lay-out print so I could trace the tracks. I went back to post #1 and found what I was looking for. I love the continuous track lay-out design. Keep up the good work and continue posting...
