Uncle Edward, I recommend you not convert your layout to this kind of an operating layout. It would simply require too much work removing all that detailed scenery and marking all that rolling stock with felt pens. Besides, it would be hard to find one who was not happy with the operations capabilities of your layout. So glad I got to see your layout last summer. How is construction coming along on your Budd cars? - Earl Henry, Nashville In a message dated 7/28/2012 1:25:50 P.M. Central Daylight Time, [email protected] writes:

Roos Some of the super-serious scale modelers around here like to remark that the operations guys would be happy using 2"x4" wood blocks with trucks and couplers and a car number (felt tip pen). The more sidings the better and there is no need for a mainline. Scenery, of course, is totally unnecessary. "S"mirks....Ed L.
