Is it REAL? or Just 1:29 scale?

QUOTE: Originally posted by ttrigg I've just encountered a new problem, at least for me. My wife breeds Papillons (think 5 pound dog with 2 pounds of fur). My water fall mountain is still under construction, so the interior is still easy to reach. The dogs have taken to using the tunnel as a rest room! I had two derailments today for dog droppings inside the tunnel. I'm sure that some one out there has experienced this problem before. Anyone have an idea for a "pooper scooper car"? I'm afraid that after I finish building the waterfalls that I might not be able to properly remove this type of debris. I have tested the design for track cleaning purposes using a plasterers "pole sander", but had not planned on dealing with dog droppings. I'm thinking of some kind of removable spinning brush on the end of a flat car. Anyone else experienced this problem and how did you overcome it? Never had this happen in HO&N scales. Tom
