THEY MOVE!!! Especially steam engines! <br /> <br />I was a member of the local club that runs 1" and 1-1/2" trains outdoors, on an 11 acre layout. The trains that run on that size track, and are fired by coal, propane, wood or oil, and boil water to run are called LIVE STEAM, and if you have ever tried to run one, you would quickly find out that they eat, breathe and even talk. <br /> <br />By the way, the guy who is now the president of the club always ends his messages with "Steam, its a living thing". <br /><hr noshade size="1"> <br />Boys, this is how you politely disagree, and make a point without trying to start World War III.[:)] <br />[/quote] <br /> <br /> <br />HAHAHAHAH I dont mean this sarcastically but I do agree with you. They do move.
