QUOTE: Originally posted by AggroJones Nope. My derailments tend to happen right infront of me. Like I'm looking at a train too hard and force it off the rails. I rarely leave trains running unattended though.

QUOTE: Originally posted by selector My derailments just...happen. It's a quantum physics thing. Although, one time I left my steamers too long one day and one of them (casts a baleful eye over to the LL 0-6-0) left a pile of cinders right in the middle bay of the roundhouse. Any casualties, trainluver?
QUOTE: Originally posted by howmus Derailments ONLY happen when you invite someone over to see how "great" your layout is. The day before you can run every loco, every car, any size train, any speed and nothing, I say, nothing will derail. When the guest gets there, no loco, no car, nor any train will be able to move more than 3 feet before a derailment happens. It is caused by a relative of the gremlins that get into sound cables and tangle them all up between gigs! LOL
