The train looks like an American Flyer (as I have one too). And that's some sweet setup you got there for the train.

Yep, it's my Dad's old metal one. I've also got my Dad's diesel, and a plastic steam engine along with some additional rolling stock and a bunch of abused track that an uncle rescued from someone's trash ages ago, but I believe that both of those are still wired up for AC operation. I think I'll be building a static display case for both of those.

We will not edit your comments. However, we may delete your comments, or cause them to be hidden behind another link, if we feel they detract from the conversation. Commercial plugs are fine, if they are relevant to the conversation, and if you don't try to pretend to be a consumer. Annoying endorsements will be deleted if you're lucky, if you're not a whole bunch of people smarter and more articulate than you will ridicule you, and we will leave such ridicule in place.
