Thanks Toys_Trains-Things
One of the reasons I like playing with these Tomy type trains is that they don't take themselves seriously and by that I mean scale is not all that important. Take for instance the Tomy Town, Hypercity kids/people, really not to scale with the trains and building nor are the trains with the accessories. Add the ease of use and the ability to change and rework the layout easily amounts to much fun. Plus these things are durable and hard to damage. Certainly a lot different that the serious HO or other scale builders. Don't think they would be setting up crash em ups with their expensive trains and beautiful scenery.
Thanks for the info on your soldering iron. I had a cheap one that didn't last a couple months. They don't make things like they use too. I just picked up a dual wattage soldering station from Radio Shack and I hope it works easier for me and is a better unit.
