You have taken "Show Me Something" to dizzying heights, Bear Smile

how about showing me your favourite model railroading thing, please.

Aww, that's not fair! Only ONE thing? Well, if it came down to having to choose only one...

It would have to be one of these lovely Cleveland Union Terminal motors —
