Looks like I was right about the shims!

There's a difference? Wow...I didn't know that.
Let see: we are running little plastic/brass/diecast approximations of real trains past plastic people that never seem to move. OK. Our towns are filled with buildings constructed of plastic, hydrocal or thin wood...usually having little to no interiors. OK. Rolling stock goes from place to place - hauling nothing. OK. Huge beings look down on our landscape...making sure everything is going according to plan (and occasionally giving a recalcitrant car a little shove). OK. Our scenery is constructed of foam or plaster and is populated with vegetation composed of bits of dyed foam whilst our trees are 'grown' with plastic trunks and foam 'leaves'.
Yeah...that sounds like 'operation'. Personally I play with my toys.
Just my opinion,
Ray

And just how many people model West Virginia? It must be one of the most often depicted areas for model railroads...it seems like almost every issue of Model Railroader features at least one story about someone who models WV. It really is a beautiful place, and easy to depict in a past era.
If it isn't West Virginia, it's Colorado narrow gauge. Trains, especially steam trains, and mountains just seem to belong together, I guess.
