Whoa! We use these in Texuss to make sure the electrical grids can keep up with the giga-giga-gigawatt power demands of Dallas and Houston...!

Small Layouts are cool! Low post counts are even more cool! NO GRITS in my pot!!!

Us Rebels just fly over your blockades. [:D] Better oil your track so it will not rust and cause friction. [;)] With that long spout, you should be able to reach all of your layout. [:)] [don't tell Tom, Spankybird is an undercover Rebel spy]

It was great have everyone over. When ever you are in town, call and stop over.


This is one of the items we pick up today at the Stewart’s Hobby Store











As you can see, this is a very nice diecast car made by IXO, price was $24.95.
