26-2 3:00:57	soccrdad30	well, time for me to go. have a good nite! hope to have a few updates Sunday
26-2 2:59:25	rvn2001	The one I'm visiting tomorrow was recently damaged by a burst water pipe above some of the layout.
26-2 2:49:08	DAZed	I used to operate on this KCS layout regularly. Jim was the nicest guy in the world, and I always enjoyed going over there. Unfortunately he passed away about 10 years ago. The layout is no longer.
26-2 2:48:15	soccrdad30	I believe it Stony, Fredd always referred to his 'Black hole'
26-2 2:47:08	GNFan	Probably a sign on the bathroom door reading: "Do Not Use Shower When Trains Are Operating".
26-2 2:46:40	stonysmith	and that room was where his bandsaw was
26-2 2:46:23	stonysmith	You should have seen Fred Ladd's setup.. everything in his basement except for one room was covered in track
26-2 2:46:02	rvn2001	The one I'm visiting tomorrow is N scale and covers half of the basement with double levels.
26-2 2:45:56	DAZed	here's a video I found... «link»
26-2 2:44:49	soccrdad30	wow
26-2 2:43:38	DAZed	it was completely ops oriented, DCC, almost the entire KCS system in a compressed sort of way
26-2 2:42:50	DAZed	There was a guy here in DFW (on the Fort Worth side) that had an entire upstairs completely full of HO. Equiv of two big bedrooms, a "great room", and several large closets all full of layout. And there was even a line that ran through the bathroom....not active layout but just to get from one room to the next with the rooms separated by a bath.
26-2 2:39:55	soccrdad30	I remember seeing videos of HO or O gauge guys running thier trains across the entire basement or house through all the rooms
26-2 2:38:38	rvn2001	That's why my layouts are modular...
26-2 2:38:18	ejshelton	I was often mesmerized by it
26-2 2:37:47	DAZed	it was fun to watch.
26-2 2:37:36	soccrdad30	Ha! love that Mike. The only way to go!
26-2 2:37:07	ejshelton	Absolutely....I loved doing that
26-2 2:37:01	GNFan	i'm imagining Thom putting up T Trak and ZBend modules, and then building his house around them.
26-2 2:36:42	DAZed	Thom, well both of you really
26-2 2:36:27	DAZed	I recall you had the figure 8 "plum full".....loco was knocking the rust off the caboose coupler
26-2 2:36:12	rvn2001	Mine, yes, Doug.
26-2 2:35:18	rvn2001	The T-Trac modules are in their respective file boxes right now.
26-2 2:35:02	DAZed	so these are the modules you had at KC?
26-2 2:34:58	ejshelton	Yes it is. I loved taking it to shows. One module has a figure 8 that I had a lot of fun with. The other has an oval with sidings.....so when I was hooked up with the other modules I had a place to play
26-2 2:34:42	soccrdad30	Thom, with your Z Bend modules and your T trak-Z modules that must fill up your house
