Thanks for the kind words , Scot. I think we have all helped each other to build our trains.

Walter your train is so cool!!! I would love just pictures of the setup, motor, drive wheels, power. How did you bend your guide?
Scot, you right about that .. even my "G" scale train running under the pixel-tree gets more ohhs and ahhs than any other part of the display
walter is a great person to talk to about building a train. He got me started. using some of his plans and some others. now have all my track done and working on the Christmas train. right now laying out the engine, then the cars. all with lights.
I've taught several train classes for Lone Star Holidays. My latest PowerPoint is available on GleannlochChristmas.com. Walter is right- we all learn from each other.

got my train build going now.. got engine running and it works.. now building the cab for it.. will be a diesel engine with 3 car behind it.. walter gave me alot of adivse and looking at pictures decided to go ahead with it.. have some pictures that will have to download and put on here..
got my train built.. had problems with it this year.. but see what was going on.. going to redo some of it this year.. always something to learn from it.. just getting the kinks out of it.
I really wish I hadn't looked at this thread and wished I hadn't watched the youtube video.
Yes I want to build a train now. Only thing is, we have a really small yard. Maybe something to look at for 2017.
For those having a stab it this for this year I'd love to see some build photo's along the way.
