Just out of interest... What other uses have you found for model equipment ?
The reason i ask is because my neice decided uncle mike should have a foam glider for christmas (aww....!). After a few flights, it started to break and little lucy was quite upset... So i glued a spare bit of n rail along the length of it, and now it flies even better !
Anyone else got a similar story ?

Sounds a bit awful, but i had a 2ft length 'cut-off' of peco flexi track, which I use as a back scratcher ::)
Not model railways, but I once used part of an Airfix Bristol Beaufighter TFX to fix a laptop.
I once used a Farish 0-6-0 J94 loco to chuck at a Cane Toad in the back yard.

Hit or Miss? What was worse off toad or train? You've gotta tell the story now, you've got me intrigued?

That is without a doubt, the best non railway use of a model loco.... AWESOME !!! :smiley-laughing: :smiley-laughing: :smiley-laughing:
