Thompson’s Old Fashioned Train Show
Byron and I along with family friend Jacob attended the 2nd Thompson’s Old Fashioned Train show in Clemmons today. Lots of O and S. Some HO and N layouts. Then there was my Z scale one. Although massively incomplete, it was well received. Finally got a cheap old N scale boxcar to compare to one in Z and then people really appreciated the size more. Alright, enough talking, time for pictures:
Jacob working the control. Control is Arduino powered. The cheap powerpack is for the AC to the switch machines.
The yard with all the stock I have….at the time. Picked up 2 more MTL intermodal units at the show.

Why are these cars jostling???
I checked the track before gluing it down and I don’t remember the cars jostling like this. I purposely did not glue the turnouts. Anyone have ideas why the cars are jostling and any solutions?

Skateylove!!
Blake from the Roadskater is always snapping pictures on his rides. Well, this time I got him during the Tour to Tanglewood MS Ride. ;) Can’t wait for the 2011 Carolina Century. Will be a great ride!
The picture quality is better when viewed full sized.
