New York City guys!...... 3rd Avenue "EL".........Street Trafic Lights

Maybe, an inexpensive* adaptable universal control panel. There are so many different sized transformers, switch controls, toggles etc. Wouldn't it be nice to have a board that you could just easily connect everything to without having to allow for big handles, small dials and strange shaped knobs?

Good looking O gauge, not 027, grade crossings for streets. How about ones for different sized curves, too?

This is a big one from the 1960's. The time when O Gauge Trains nearly went out of production, so it was overlooked in O Gauge and O Scale.

This 1960's style car has to be made in O Scale for O Gauge operators.

Magor Car Company Aluminum Bodied 3-Bay Covered Hoppers actually made out of Aluminum.

Operating Hatches and Gravity Discharge Gates. Fine metal details.

MTH has made Chicago and New York City subways...now, how about a RailKing Scale Dallas DART light rail train, complete with Station Stop ProtoEffects? That's something I've always wanted in O scale. Other than that, just about any train I want is already available, or has been available in the past.

Long live the BNSF .... AND its paint scheme. SchemerBob
