Pick yourself up a cheapo battery operated analog clock, one with a second hand. Remove the hour hand. Use the minute hand as an hour hand - five real minutes will equal one hour. Simple and cheap as that! I've bought such clocks at local Dollar Stores. <br /> <br />A friend does this on his large layout, and has clocks all around the place. He replaced the battery with some wires to each battery contact, all running to the dipatchers' office, then to a larger battery (D size) to power all of the clocks. There is a switch in the wire allowing all of the clocks to be turned on and off at the end of a session. <br /> <br />Bob Boudreau
