I know what you are saying our club layout is the same way.so we run and overlook them,The layout set dormat for over 5 years once the track was cleaned and power applied not one of them needed replaced.They are reailable just to bad that a manf. has not put the effort into enclosing them into a more realistic appearence.I tried one time to make a cover out of resin,but with my limited amount of time i had to spend on my layout I gave up and went with the little balsa and strip wood idea. It was just a thought that I hoped would stir some interesting conversation,on all the different ways,that people have dealt with those ugly things.Since i am getting ready to start rebuilding a more prototypical layout and I don't know if ground throws will be used in all situations.I thought i had replied to everyone in my org,but I did want to thank Egmurphy and eriediamond for their comments and suggestions.Terry.
