All you guys that have been modeling railroads for years/decades I'm sure you have seen or have a Rix Rail-It so you can ignore this but for those who are new I have just discovered this $3.00 gem. It helps you easily put your locomotives/rolling stock on your tracks without having to use the rerailer. It is especially nice for placing your larger steam locos with front and rear trucks. Just thought I would pass it along.

Hey, newguy, why are you reserving this great product just for newbies? It is some of us "veterans" that need this the most! A friend and long time model railroader recently let me try his and now I can't wait to get my own. Thanks for posting the URL.
I have 2 of the N scale version. I bought 2 because I knew one of them would be lost at any given time. And yes, I think they're awesome too.
