They will see a white plate laid down on each end of the track which will tell them to cut power and reverse. You'll (...) (17 years ago, 19-Feb-07, to lugnet.trains.org.tcltc, lugnet.trains, FTX)

| (...) And so it begins.....You'll have to change your corner store to the 12 wide Emporium. I loved Mr. Rogers as a kid and it was mostly due to Trolley and the Land of Make Believe. This is a very nicely done model, as usual. I'm curious as to how (...) (17 years ago, 19-Feb-07, to lugnet.trains.org.tcltc, lugnet.trains, FTX)
