Leave 15 peices of rolling stock outside unused for 6 months. we had more then normal rains this winter. Kaydee’s will rust, the pin anyway. removed 5-6 dozen snails from the underside of the cars and filled a 96 gallon toter with damp dryed out leafs.
Try to pull a full 96 gal. toter over a glued only bridge. My stone bridge has a painted wood core. After I picked up the pieaces I noticed the five year old latex paint peeled form the still dump redwood
Leave a railroad covered in leafs over the winter.The Snails loved that I found and removed at least 20 doz. Plus the ones that were raked up…
In my defence I was Ill from the end of Oct thru Feb, I spent my birthday in the Hospital ( that sucked ). And I was not allowed out side to Play till recently, and then only if was 60 deg. or better I missed my two 66 unit run dates that were planned. I will try on the 17th of may but I will have to add my camera car so its 66.5 units long.
