The downside to your victory will be how low the bar is set when I'm in play. I should have put my 10-year-old cameraman at the controls. (but do let us know how it works out for you)

Thank you, Frederic. I have no experience with N scale but it would seem you could almost realize all of your railroad fantasies inside a normal basement with those little trains. O looks great and it's so much fun to play with, but you can't get much prototype action in most houses.

Thank you. This is bittersweet to watch. The little boy who was operating the camera for me moved only yesterday. He and his three sisters were so special to Jennifer and me. We even substituted once for their real out-of-town grandparents at a school function. They’ve moved to a bigger house in a neighborhood with over 50 children, so I’m happy for that. Very "human" indeed.

Well, my high school band director was a favorite teacher and a great guy, so I'll take that as a major compliment. Thank you so much!

Killyan thanks a million

That would make a great KZfaq channel name: "Switchin' On The Main Line." ;>)

@@RexRoach Thanks for showing how much fun can be had with model trains with very little space.

Eric, I appreciate your words so much. Right now I'm terribly frustrated with KZfaq and their "Community Guidelines" which forbid videos which show how to make ammunition. They pulled down my "Bullet Casting Extravaganza" video and I had to delete three more which gave steps on how to make ammo. Ironically the one YT pulled only showed how to cast bullets, but I suppose to most people, "bullets" are the same as ammunition. Anyway, I'll be doing videos on reloading machines, trains, recording and whatever else might seem a bit interesting, but no step-by-step guides to making ammuntion. I would LOVE to do one on the .357 SIG. I've never owned nor even shot a .45 GAP so that's out. When YT struck, I was just about to begin a series on black powder cartridge loading...

sorry to be offtopic but does anybody know a tool to get back into an Instagram account?? I stupidly lost my login password. I appreciate any assistance you can offer me.

@Jamie Genesis instablaster =)

@Muhammad Ivan thanks for your reply. I got to the site on google and Im trying it out atm. Looks like it's gonna take quite some time so I will get back to you later when my account password hopefully is recovered.

@Muhammad Ivan It did the trick and I actually got access to my account again. I'm so happy:D Thanks so much, you saved my ass!

@Jamie Genesis You are welcome :D

www.lionel.com/products/fastrack-remote-uncoupling-track-6-12020/ It’s called a Fastrack remote uncoupling track and includes the switch and another half-length track section. As to complexity for a beginner, just reduce the number of cars.

@@RexRoach That sounds too simple ;~} Thanx

Thanks for the link to Lionel, I found it and ordered some. Cheers

Charles, here's a link to a drawing which shows the Lionel part numbers for the track as well as the layout. drive.google.com/open?id=1W5tvBEAJA5jEnU6aJiTTpbJ4j5FZoMEM

Absolut?
