Use Gruyere cheese for rail. After all we are moving to battery power anyway so conductivity and solder-ability will soon be irrelevant. We could bake our ties out of cracker dough and lightly melt the Gruyere cheese rails onto the ties. And best of all we'd finally have the respect of the French, which is so important.</p> <p>Dave Nelson</p> <div style="clear:both;"> </div> <p>[/quote]</p> <p>Slight correction - Gruyere is in Switzerland. Gruyere cheese is the one that goes into the famous Swiss cheese fondue.</p>
