Yes they are 6 of them, how ever not all of them may make it to the
show. The are also one inch too short. I'm going to try and get some

whats to use them it would help if they could get their own strips. My
source may or may not be able to make it depending on weather.
Talk to Jeff VW and Calum because they have the 6 of them split between
them to bring.

| (...) For an impromptu train yard, I don't think it matters that much for the inch difference--I'll bring my large baseplates and that'll help for the track spanning the drop. Bring 3 or more if ya can :) Dave K (22 years ago, 13-Jan-03, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

| I kinda thought we'd put on new trains by setting them at the top of the ramp and letting them zip down on their own. It's called *rolling* stock, right? :D By all means, add a rail yard if you have the time and energy. Right now, I *think* Jeff VW (...) (22 years ago, 13-Jan-03, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
