What did you do to your trains today?

does the extra set of wheels derail the train when it pass through a curve?

[Super]

they were supposed to but I accidentally glued one rigid

oops! LOL

Hi no it doesn't they hang just above the rails and they don't interfere with the running

Extreme surgery today! Trackmaster 2 Timothy got the chop for the better I hope.

That is awesome Ucwepn, I love it and like the way you think. Maybe an HO or O scale engineer will fit in that open air cab.

Thanks a tomy driver figure almost fits (he can hang out of the side like he's looking for danger hehe)

can see where I had to cut the whole back top off where the switch sits then glue it back on.

[Super]

He looks great riding in the cab. I can picture him leaning out with a lantern signaling the coming switch house of their arrival. You must have snapped these pictures before you finished the smoke stack and head lamp. Well done my friend.

Thanks yeah pics are in jumbled order I showed the almost finished product first

I've been able to build a layout again! I have relatives with their children coming over next week so I am in the process of setting up a Motor Road and Rail/TrackMaster layout for them after all those buys I made during the year. I imagine starting a week ahead will make sure I can set everything the way I want to. It's been some time since I made a proper layout so there will be a lot of trialing, but I have ideas in mind based on the way I've seen layouts set up on commercials and promo DVDs.

Since I have one pair of adaptors, one half of the layout will be Motor Road and Rail and the other, TrackMaster. I started today and to my surprise, I finished the MRR half. I'll post pictures and maybe a video when I'm done. Just wanted to excite you guys.

Looking forward to seeing what you have accomplished Jdog. I am sure the kids will remember this visit for a long time.
