You just might need to get the needle nose pliers out to model these prototype tracks.

I mean the tracks you will see at about 1:15 in the video

Don't you wish model trains were that forgiving of bad track?

Yes, former Maumee & Western... new videos of these horrid tracks keep surfacing and making the rounds on the internet every so often. I was hanging out with a bunch of fellow railfans last summer and we were trying to build little sections of track out of whatever we had lying around (boredom is dangerous!) and one guy's section kept falling apart... another guy joked "Congratulations, you've built the Maumee & Western!" and we all cracked up And they wonder why the rest of the world looks at us funny...
