Yea, a partially derailed truck is an effective brake. Since I have added ball bearing inserts to some of my cars, I have been using that "brake" even more often.

Or a coarse pebble can be an effective chock. Yet true confession tattletales that many times the off set wheel was first choice ....

That derail is on porpoise. There is a grade there that causes said car to roll downhill while the photographer is busy with the camera!

 

So there!

for the next time...

a used chewing gum on the offside rail works wonders!

This was made from an Aristocraft Club Car. If anyone else wants to do one, I do have another with the original paint job with body mounted Kadees and slightly (more than slightly) rusted metal wheels. If nobody answers here, I will post under "For Sale or Trade" $35 plus shipping.

Ha! I'm first!

Brunt Junction got a drop off this morning.

What was this a load of, with the strange markings?

Ric and Jan were just tickled that it was parked across from their Pretzel Hut!

I don't think it is a load of ice cream for BC's Ice Cream Parlor! Bruce hopes it will be gone soon.

imgur is working for me ...so far!

Joe, my computer would be fast, if Microsoft quit adding more and more stuff running in the background with each new OS.

Joe, your instructions work.

There is a damn delay. Thats the problem. I have to leave the post and come back to it and the video is there. go figure!

And that is another lie we were taught in school; computers are fast.

David,

The computer IS fast. It's the IP that is slow sometimes. A lot of it depends on what kind of service you are paying for.
