Rule one, Grey One. Long as you're enjoying yourself.
Atlas Accumates are notorious for mid train uncoupling. It is pretty much the only issue I have while running if it happens, I'll turn the car...
Oakville uses the tried and true latex caulk method - but you need to ballast the track or it will move on you. In a staging area this is not...
Aw, Geez, George - ya let the magic smoke out!
