Steve Featherkile said:The very first train set I had, a Trix Twin that was a Christmas present in '52 or '53, was set up on the dining room table at my grandparents. My little sister begged to be allowed to stop it before we went to bed -- unfortunately, she twisted the throttle knob the wrong way, and the train hurled itself off the curve at high velocity and into the abyss. The damage was repaired; I still have the train somewhere, but track and controller disappeared long ago.
This could happen to you.
Chris,
It is very noiticeable that you did not mention if your sister survived or if she is still around. Did you ever forgive her?
Don’t trust your sister(s), they are out there. 
Ric Golding said:Yes, she is still around. And I did.
Chris, It is very noticeable that you did not mention if your sister survived or if she is still around. Did you ever forgive her?

My childhood friend, Bob and I used to set our locomotives on the same track, going in opposite directions. In 3-rail, you can do that fairly easy. Then we would pour the juice to them and watch them crash into eachother. I still have mine.
We only did it once or twice before our fathers found out about it. That put an effective end to our careers as trainwreckers. I can still feel that strap…

Chris Vernell said:Heck, I knew that! Sometimes it's a Zeppelin and other times it's a dirigable. And then there are certain members of the psychobullogy clan who insist that it is a phallic symbol.

It’s enough to be very, very afraid …
