Just for Fun

There are many versions of this song and I have played many of them Now I can't get the tune out of my head. But I thought this was a particularly ( par tick u lar ly-- for Kin) pretty rendition and a good background music for a Z video.
Hope this works.

Nope Fred, yer not gettin' me to click on that link. I just saw the title of the song in the link and I almost got the song stuck in my head just from reading it!

Yup Yup
Dang- It's so pretty I have to keep replaying it!!

Aaaw, Come on Joe-- It's a TRAIN SONG- Bet you can't play it just once!

Darn, now that is pretty. Wish I could play an instrument like that.......

This looks like a great project

I'M GOING BLIND. Its Freds fault. Maybe he's going blind. That is the uuuuuglist picture I have
ever seen.

Whilst paruzing Bing and Google- looking for interesting fotos of model rail roads ( all scales)-- what did my wandering eyes did I spy...... of 509,000 fotos I happened upon the below link.
I hesitated to post this as it might seem I'm tooting my own horn, or that it is another advertizement. After lengthy debate and heated discussions ( with self ) WE desided to post it anyways. There are a lot of "Tips" on this site and another Alaska Z scale layout. Augie aquired his Alaska ABA set from me and we have been sharing emails ever since. His foto section shows the building of a small layout. It also shows another attempt to get Z scale out in the public in a different avenue.
This site also shows what you can do with the leftover foam- that stuff you didn't chop to pieces.

Kin- get some better glasses- a combination of boats and trains just has to be beautiful.

On the Hot Wire Site above- there are three Z scale layouts under model railroading. Augie Gray's Alaska-- Robin Christle's layout- showing different stages of construction ( and if you look closely, you might find Loren "He's Everywhere"-- and Jim Manley.) --- and mine.

Fred, I like the sub. Good modeling there. Where is Captain Nemo? Jim

Jim, I like the sub too- wish it were mine. I found that picture on model railroad images.

Hi Fred, I've been working on a special renewal project on a MOW 3 car set that I purchased at my LHS. It was in about 50 pieces. Some broken, some lost, and some simply laying there. It was like a big puzzle putting it back together. Someone, it looks like long ago, did some fantastic modeling in the first place. I only hope I did it justice in my reconstruction. I'd show it but I fogot how to post photos here?? This sub reminded my of the hard work I did on these three cars. Jim

For Santa Fe Lovers:



You too, Kin

To preface my expert opinion - and never ever having had this problem-- and Acknowledging I know nothing from whence I speak---
It might be best to keep the FROG off the track.

Have you cleaned the frog and made sure it's gauged right?

A good flat metal file can take care of any sharp or uneven edges. Jim

Make sure to clean the surrounding track after filing.
