Just trying to finish up my latest "do something" challenge and it would be nice to put a few vehicles on the streets and parking lots. I looked through what I have and I'm ashamed that most of it looks like lumps of plastic toys, even 10 feet away. It's hard to show a lot of detail in N scale, but there are vehicles available that are better looking than what I have, so I pulled out the current Walther's flyer. Yup, there's a few N scale vehicles in it, lots more choices if I was doing HO though. As a matter of fact, I would have a heck of a lot more choices of anything if I was doing HO. Just as an example, in the flyer:

Vehicles in HO in flyer - 55
Vehicles in N in flyer - 11
New items in HO - 65
New items in N - 5
Pages of HO on sale -23
Pages of N on sale - 5
Scenery items on sale in HO - 80
Scenery items on sale in N - 9
Parts on sale in HO - 21
Parts on sale in N - 0

I'm not knocking it, I chose N scale for a reason, knowing that I would be in the minority, and that HO was far the most popular scale. I feel for those in any other scale, I thought I saw a few items in O or Z, but I couldn't fine them again. I'm just pointing out one of the downfalls for working in N scale. It's not enough to make me want to change, way too late for that, even though my eyes and hands wished that I would.

I was looking for a good primer in small quantities and found this video about decanting rattle cans. I think this could be very useful as did many commenters with a lot of ideas to add.

While Randy hasn't been here since 2014, many newcomers here may not know of him.  He was quite a wizard with things electric and with DCC, too, and he apparently had over 30,000 posts in the Model Railroader Forums.  I learned just today, that he has passed away.  You can read his obit HERE.

We are suppose to have RSS feed capabilities, I've never given it a thought since I've never used RSS anywhere, but apparently some folks are having problems with it and we don't know why. So, out of seeing how worthwhile this feature is, I'm taking this poll.

You can check as many poll options as is appropriate.

Just found this on CNN Business:
