I suggested the vertical mount to dad after seeing you mention it in other threads. Dad's the boss and he didn't like the idea. So we'll just have to get used to it.
However, I'm not sure it's going to work for us. I just posted in the electrical thread, but I'm wondering if the KW is underpowered for us. I wouldn't think so, but not sure. Is it unusual to trip the breaker running a single motor PW diesel+ 6 lighted cars on one side and a small modem steam on the other? Maybe my breaker is bad.
Anyway, got the track 100 percent wired now and we had some fun running both loops and testing all the turnouts!
