Rock Mold
Recenting I was making a rock structure using a Woodland Scenics rock mold. I followed all instruction and was using Woodland Scenics Lightweight Hydrocal. When I went to release the mold, the mold split on me. This is the second time a mold has split on me (both molds were different). Woodland Scenics has been above par and has replaced them with no question. My question is; am I doing something wrong or is this just a case of getting a defective mold? Has anyone else experienced this problem?
MTH vs Athearn Big Boy
A member of our club has asked me my opinion of the Athearn Big Boy with Tsunami vs the MTH with their proprietary system. What is your opinion of the model and the decoders?
Supplier Suggestion
I am in the process of completing what I consider to be a craftsman kit - a pile of scale lumber and some instructions. I have a suggestion for suppliers as I have a problem with these type of kits.
Handrails for a SD40
Hello All,
I have a HO scale Kato SD40 (Santa Fe) but I haven't the handrails. Kato's website can't provide this item.
How can I do to find those handrails please?
Many thanks for your answers.

On30 clearance.
When designing an On30 layout what is the clearance required for passing tracks to accommodate car and engine overhang? I have a few places where there would be parallel tracks. I just want to make sure passing trains do not snag on each other.
Thanks!
