  1. Douglas. Marx trains have difficulty running real slow, I could run them a little slower, but they would stall on the back side of the layout they slow down back there and can stall. Not all of the track is nailed down which will help to make a better connection back there, but I cannot do it until the back scenery is finished. If the old Marx motors stall they can build heat and burn out.

  2. here’s an old saying, ” if you can’t say something nice, say nothing”
    I enjoyed the layout and also the fast running trains!

  3. Hello Todd , I love your Marx video was very cool. It is sure nice seeing Marx plastic diesels ABA set I love it too Thanks Edward King

  4. It looks like you have a nice start on your railroad but I prefer to see the trains run at a slower speed!
