    where can i find the "Touring the M&K Division of the B&O" and the "Operations on the Santa Fe Railroad" video when i click the "WATCH NOW" link in the e-mail you send me all i get is a 404 error page not found. And doing a search on your web page for the same videos I get the same error message "Page Not Found". Why send out page links that don't exist? BruceO@msn.com

    I'm modeling HO in about 1938. Can anyone suggest sources of vehicles or vehicle kits for the period the late 1920s to before 1939? I have about 18 so far, but need many more for my Eastern Pennsylvania suburban town and industrial areas.

    These layouts were so enjoyable to see. I'm 82 and many years ago I had a small but nice layout with several tears on four 4x8 sheets of plywood. I still have many buildings and engines. I have no idea how much track and 15 remote switches all HO. Would love to get back into it again someday.

    You should add a viewer speed control, so we can speed up our viewing time. These videos are too darn slow.
