Saw this NHK doc and I'm inspired.

Seeing the tracks this looks awesome. Is it possible to separate the track to do this sort of thing? If anyone has please send examples

What are your thoughts on High speed rail? I think we need it

I personally think it's needed for the U.S. + At some point

"One more lane bro" ain't gonna fix traffic. I want to see peoples attitudes over it. I feel like it'll beneficial to all like libraries

Went to Japan 3 weeks ago...

There was a model train store of 4 or 5 floors in Akihabara where you can bring your n scale trains and rent out a track at their layout. It was such an interesting experience. I'm new to this concept. Most people here usually have model railroading clubs that require DCC ,but this is something else. I'll be bringing my own trains that I bought in Japan back to Akihabra so I can rent one of these tracks out. I'll give updates when I do decide to return

(Photos were allowed at the layout)

Anyone selling any used Tomix straight rail? Specifically, the plastic grey ballast.

The shipping costs from Japan are crazy. I'm just wondering if anyone has any extra I can buy from them in America. Tbh I do like them more than the Kato rails

Using my Tomix trains in a Hilton

Took inspiration from a guy who posted about using his O guage in a Hilton Hotel. I would say an oval works on the table ,but I don't want to put it on the carpet

I'm just in the area for fun

I work far from here ,but I wanted to check the place out for myself. Looks pretty cool. Saw some rails on it too. I will complain until they finish it cause I still want this to become a reality. Note: Just giving a heads up that the first shot was a zoom in. No trespassing signs are to be respected

I thought of a fun challenge.

I've seen a post of someone running their O gauge in a hotel a while back. Why not have a fun challenge where you set up a train layout of any gauge in a random public area for fun. Library, mall, maybe in the wild. Could be a fun concept

Are there any model train Enthusiasts in Ecuador?

Just curious to know if people out there are actively looking for some or even selling any? I might start bringing my own to Ecuador. My family hasn't seen any so for them I'm hoping it will be a cool experience

My first error car

Thanks u/_InvaderJim for pointing this out. First time with a limited set and first time with an error car. I think I was shocked I was able to buy this and didn't realize the error until your comment. Seriously cool

I feel like I won the lottery.

First time poster here. I travel across the U.S. for work and go into antique stores all the time for fun. I felt like I scored this time around. I got a price reduction to $324 as well. This will forever be my most precious find! Out of all the places I found this freaking Bakersfield, CA. I feel blessed

We're old...

I remember watching this anime when I was 11. Im 28 now. It's nice to see younger people discovering the old anime I used to watch. Back in my day we used to get made fun of for watching this. I still watch it every now and then. Brings back good memories
