I wish they’d just do another run period. I’m eventually gonna grab one of either the CSX MOW ones or the Pickens RR (CSX would be redone for the Pickens anyways). Ideally I’d rather get a DC one to just put a system in like what DFF did. Scale Sound Systems are a game changer.

Nah, it’s Weekend Update.  Anything goes in these threads, even HO scale, despite this being in the N & Z scales forum. 😀

Re-hacking my rotary couplers to use magnets.  These are working out to be more reliable than the old fishing swivel hacks.
