Dinner didn't work as well as expected. Marsala Wine didn't work in soup. Everything smelled great until then. Youngest screamed all through 20-minutes of cooking, until I picked her up. What was I thinking trying to spend time making a nice dinner?. Just soup, croutons on top covered with...

Ok...That was wierd...I didn't know a new thread was starting. Doug: I've been running the Burro on Fastrack, so I can't use the track mounted actuators to change the direction, but I think it will run down the track, hit one of these posts, and go in the opposite direction. Another lever on...

If you need to replace this wire it's called superflex, 22 gauge, available thru train repair/parts dealers. Regular wire will be too stiff for the tender trucks to turn. I have one of these engines as well! Great Engine! Kurt

Evening all! Been busy. Stripped and repainted the 2025. Turned out very nice. Stripping that paint was a bear. Used striper and lacquer thinner. Well Don were your ears ringing, or is it nose itchy??? Anyway....My bride leaves the second week of February for India (work), and I'll be...

Afternoon all! Spankybird: That's one nice layout! Ozzy: Bummer. But it has a nice view! Can you claim squatters rights on a local road? Seems like it would be easier to build a new bridge around the house, or turn the house into a new covered bridge. Kurt
