    Kato stack cars

    I bought 3 sets of them and i agree they can be a pain to put together but once you do it a couple of times it bcomes easy. But in the mean time i also broke a peg. I'll be buying the BNSF versions next. Just wish they would mix up the names on the containers for some variety. Dave

    Layout design

    What do you guys think i can do in an area that is L shaped of 12x 4x 30" wide. I'm not very good in designing layouts so i need some ideas. I would like to have nice 4 or 5 track yard with a 2 track main. If i could fit the Walthers turntable in somewere that would be great. Any ideas?:wave...

    I have decided to use the Atlas C55 track, what does powering the frog do for operation besides powering the frog to prevent hiccups of some locomotives? Thanks, Dave:) :)
