Marxist Monon

Posted by wallyworld on Saturday, July 9, 2011 10:28 PM

First attempt at a video which I thought was due since I am pestering others to do so. The W&R ( Windup and Rundown) tinplate layout is built on four lightweight folding tables and is meant to be movable inasmuch as I had my share of tear-downs, The over-layment is carpet padding painted green. It has a few things left to be done.

Nothing is more fairly distributed than common sense: no one thinks he needs more of it than he already has.

wallyworld, Its easy to see why you Marxists love your trains. Very nicely done. I enjoy seeing a layout like yours that really captures the whimsey of tinplate trains. I particularly like seeing the products of one manufacturer displayed together as you have done. I have the same freight station that you do, but so far I haven't been able to make a space for it. Now I will have to get my act together and try to figure out how to post a video of the Blueboard Central. Thanks for posting. Northwoods Flyer
