I tried to sell my two cents worth, but no one would give me a plug nickel for it.

I don't have a leg to stand on.

Using O scale outside?
Posted by DennisB on Thursday, February 28, 2008 11:46 AM
I am looking at building an O scale layout outside. Does anyone manufacture track that will stand up to UV damage? I understand all the other things that I must deal with. Most of the buildings will be scratch built. It is just the plastic in the track that concerns me. Has anyone successfully built an O scale layout outdoors. Regards, Dennis.
