What size are the pics? There is a 300k limit. That could be causing problems also.
No, I sold all of my HO stuff when I moved out of my old house. I had a nice room setup with a rail yard a working roundhouse (well, working most of the time...lol), electronic switches and one of those little gandy dancers...a nice little lake with water flowing around it (I'm surprised i...
I didn't realize this was almost here already!
