Not sure if just one FT will pull the eight heavy cars plus a caboose up my 1.34%.  Well like my Pearl Harbor set , I only run it once a year on Dec. 7th.

Pluto gonna be the caboose?  :facepalm:

Greg O

Can't be, because Pluto is uninhabitable.  :trollface:

Of course, the same thing was said about some cabooses in the end.

Perhaps one day I'll model my 20-inch dobsonian telescope and it's support trailer on one on of my modules.

Only slightly more seriously, has anyone put a scale model-model of the solar system on an n-scale layout?  Some parks, cities/museums have models of the solar system in parks or along trails to allow people to better understand the scale - the distances between the planets.  There was a lady in an astronomy club I was in a few years back who at public star parties, would scale out the solar system using pieces of toilet paper.

Clear Skies,
