Hmmmm, have you got a concealed carry permit for that track?

You mean like the CC&W RR?

January 1949: A personal friend of Harry S. Truman, Jack Benny served as Master of Ceremonies for Truman's Inaugural Ball. When he arrived at the White House for the event, a guard pointed to his violin case and asked, "Mr. Benny, what do you have in there?" As a joke, Jack whispered back, "It's a Thompson sub-machine gun." The guard replied, "Oh, that's a relief. I was afraid it was your violin".

I bet it raises some eyebrows when you walk through the exhibition hall, though.Surprise

I have figured out what is wrong with my brain!  On the left side nothing works right, and on the right side there is nothing left!

Since I lug gym bags full of track and trains to set up at shows, one minor problem which has been vexing me is carrying long pieces of FasTrack and O track without damaging 'em.  Had a brainstorm the other day:  I had a spare nylon tactical rifle case knocking about the residence, and had a Bright Idea:

 

GEDC0991

GEDC0994

As you can see, the track fits perfectly, and there's even room for a few spare 10" sections I had lying around...  ;-)
