QUOTE: Originally posted by FJ and G In all seriousness, I think a toy train would be a great science tool in the high school and possibly in college, testing your bridge-making, surveying (for slopes, cuts, fills) and electrical skills. Heck, take it to art class and make an artistic module. Or bring it to music class and toot out some tunes.
QUOTE: Originally posted by tschmidt Creative or sick, I'm not sure. When the cat gets up on the shelf that runs around the room I can't help but start the train up and slowly drive toward the cat. Now mind you, our cat is not the smartest thing in the world. A few times I've been able to drive right through his legs and he doesn't know what to do. Set off the diesel horn and all 4 legs leave the shelf at the same time. Trains are fun!
QUOTE: Originally posted by Davidvd59 I took a flat bed and bought an oval plastic container with holes in it of course and put my son's Guinea Pig in it and transported the thing around the layout by a steam locomotive. The animal just sat there and took cruising, but kept sniffing the smoke from the loco. His snake didn't cooperate, and neither did his ferret. The ferret like the firestation until we locked him in it by closing the fire doors for the engine. Yes I am nuts!
