Nice job! Looks like an interesting track plan. Are you going to add some more trees?

Regards, Roy

Yes Roy, It could use a few more trees. I knew it needed more of something. I'll have to see if the dollar store still sells them.

 

Jim,

The fastrack is 048 on the outer loop and 036 on the inner. All the switches are 036.

 

jaabat,

This is the only PW engine I have and is still my favorite. 1950 2036 which was part of a set my grandfather put up for me for christmas when I was 8. It's hard to believe an 8 year old played with this considering it still looks new.  This engine is underated and has pulled up to 10 cars with no problems. It gets down rated due to it does not smoke. I tend not to run smoke any ways due to no ventilation and this does not bother me.
