Troy,

Very nice, you think the cat would be more impressed if it was chasing him around the track? Keep up the great work [tup]

Take care,
Jack

Outstanding work Troy!

I sung your praises on a local talk radio show. The Program Manager is from England, John Gifford is his name, and the topic of "Get it off your Chest Friday" turned to hobbies and trains. Thus I dropped your name! Home you don't mind!

Hey Troy,

What scale are those trams? I have found some one here in my home town building NZ trams on 45mm. They build them to 1/32nd scale, but they use HO rails and wheels and re-gauge them to 45mm.
