Noah, What I use for weights are are pennies. They are small and can easily be glued together. A lot of my cars are weighted with pennies. It's also a good way to get those pesky loose pennies off your hands and out of your pockets. <br /> <br />Jim(hawks05)-You can put me on your aol buddy list. My name is TjMcnasty745. I always enjoy getting im's from people on this forum. Something neatt jim does is have everyone join a chatt room you get to meet some real neat people. <br /> <br />Not much working on the layout today. I got the trains on location horseshoe curve video last night so I'm watching that. Trying to obtain as much knowledge as I can on the horseshoe curve. The scouts are taking a trip there the first week end in august and I'm the tour guide. I'm really excited as I get to railfan and teach kids and as my dad put in the troop newsletter "Andy's enthusiasm is contagious. By the end of this trip, he won't be the only railfan." <br /> <br />I got to see my mothers picks from her trip to europe and she took some picks of some trains she saw on the other side of the atlantic. So I'll post those as soon as I find a place to put them. <br /> <br />A quick story from her trip: My mother and my sister were travelling through most of Europe by train. One trip the took a train that stopped in what they thought was a tunnel. She wondered if there was a problem and they were evacuating. So talked to one of the conductors and asked why everyone was leaving. The conductor told her they would be stopped for about 40 minutes and that they could spend the time in the shops upstairs. So my mother and sister headed upstairs to go shopping. As they were walking up the stairs they felt that whatever they were on was moving. Understanderbly confused they made up it upstairs to see that on all four sides they were on water. Their train had pulled onto a ferry without them even knowing. <br />Andrew
