Reply to "Any OO gaugers here, American OO gauge that is"

Great video.  I have started aquiring more OO after a false start the last time.  So far I have a 003/003w that I converted to 3 rail operation, A Scale Craft 4-6-0 with AC motor and manual reverse unit, an unbuilt Scale Craft stock car and partially built SC 50 box car with a brass body.  I also snagged a SC passenger coach at a recent show for a whole $5 bucks!  I am going to go the Lionel 3 rail route for right now as I want sectional track and the radius of the Lionel, SC and Tru Scale are bigger than what will fit on a 4' wide table.  I have a 4x7 foot fold up table that closes against a 10" deep frame on the wall, so stuff like the transformer and most scenery, if its fastened down, can stay in place.  I know the pilot truck will be an issue on the SC 4-6-0, but maybe I can fab up something that has better swing like the Hudson has.  The engine cost me a good chunk of change, first one I had ever seen pop up that was complete over on ebay.  I have yet to see the 0-6-0 or most any other OO engine other than Hudsons.   I have some ideas in mind for my layout once I gather up enough track, which I am working on right now.  Still need to buy the rest of the Lionel freight cars to complete my set.  Here is pic of the fold down layout, right now it has O gauge Lionel on it to enjoy while I am gathering OO stuff to switch things over.      AD
