Had these HO scale soda machines for a while. Will place them around the layout where they are suitable.

Those are bomb, Walt. Nice pick. Got a couple of sweet additions from the Busss, going to start with this:
 and then mega double dip to show the other mega cool things he sent my way: /tyco/forum/uploaded/Chops124/20190609084418_Micro Busss AOTW 007.jpg[/img This was favorite show back in the '70's, The Partridge Family. The Busss really rolled my socks down when he sent me this piece. The problem I have now is bringing myself to take it out of the package. But then, I want to use everything, so out it will come!!

 Then the Busss added in this great little Marvel Comic Book school bus. Like a lot of the guys here, I grew up with comic books, and this piece has been loved and used, and that makes it super awesome that I can now preserve this piece on Armadilloville.
And the Busss didn't stop there- out came four fabulous Loch Ness Monsters which will go to work starring in more OO 'Henley" videos.

On my day off, Thursday, I finally got off my keister and built a dust drape scaffold for Henley, and can't wait to run trains on it again.

For those of you who haven't been bored silly by my videos, here's what I am talking about, and where these wonderful pieces shall go:

You outdid yourself, Busss, thanks a million!!

I think if you warmed up the bent neck of the dino it might be able to straighten up it might of been straight once but someone left it in the sun too long

Noticed in the pic how close the track is to the edge of the board. I lost a lot of good train cars when I was a kid due to my track being on the edge.. I manage on my present layout not to have active track near any edges...

Yes....the tracks on RETRO TYCO are quite close to the edge of the platform...but luckily, I haven't had any major derailments that have destroyed a car or locomotive.
On the Ephrata Valley Railroad, however, there are wooden sides that protect against such a possibility.
