I am putting together some plastic model structures. Some of the walls are warped. Can a hair dryer or heat gun true them up?
Thanks Guys!

HO / Steam Locos & EZ Track
December 23, 2007, 09:41:43 AM
I have a large investment in EZ track. I change my layout frequently. All of the diesel locos go through crossings and turnouts with no problems. My steamers on the other hand hate the remote and #5 turnouts and crossings. I checked wheel gauge - no problem there. The needle springs in the turn-outs are too flimsey to anchor the points to the rails. The frogs on turnouts and crossings also seem to lift the front trucks of the steamers, causing de-railing.
Anyone have similar problems and/or solutions?
Thanks and Bah-Humbug!!

HO / Dash 8 40C coupler question
April 25, 2007, 10:08:56 PM
I found a Bachman Dash 8 40 C #9202 item number 85003 (on the box). The coupler is a hornhook. If I purchase this locomotive, can a knuckle coupler be installed? Space seems to rule out a draft box like the Kadee #5 or #148 outfit. Any advice?
Thanks,
Dave
