Thanks Jetrock, <br />I had about come to the same idea. I had even throught about using the string idea or even some set up with magnets. The Plymouth switchers are about the right shape, but at least twice as big as the kiln engine. I can scratchbuild the engine and cars. If I really got lazy, I have a friend with a metals machine shop. I used to work for a company that built very big large format color scanners and he did the metal work. I could have him mill one out for me. He owes me a favor. He had a 72 Ducati that was relatively rare. I took a small photo of it, cleaned it up in Photoshop, and printed it out on canvas on one of HPs large format inkjet printers. Looked like a real work of art at the end. <br /> <br />The Sainte Genevieve layout also lends itself to other additions. Just depends on how much of the basement I have to share with my wife's hobbies.
