Wow, very nice and pretty, should be raising a fury locally!

Any pictures of any other of your projects and any progress with any new parts?

Default Look at the light cord
Hi

When I saw the photo of the track with the light cord running by on the floor thought you might get a kick out of the next photo in the story. Which I took in the Wright Museum shop in 2007.

Tracks came out of Washington state, I bought a few sets that were M47 Patton spares, only problem was they all have spiked center guides, so we had to swap guides....hellish job, 70 year old center guides don't let go quietly! Fortunately I was able to buy crates of Sherman guides at the Littlefield auction, along with several NOS track sets.
