Tonight just for fun I decided to try and hook the Water Tower Diorama into the temporary layout so I could run some trains on it. Guess what it worked! Here are the results and my first contribution to this topic. I apologize about the quality. The camera is old and outdated and the lighting is terrible, but the trains are running. http://www.railimages.com/albums/tommcintyre/ask.mpg http://www.railimages.com/albums/tommcintyre/asl.mpg And here is the star of the show.

You're certainly getting plenty of mileage from this diorama! That says a lot about how well it is done! Keep on having fun! Boxcab E50
Thanks everyone. This was just one those hey I wonder if I can do that moments that actually worked. I did not realize how fast the train was going until I played back the video after I posted it. I was just so happy and surprised that it worked, running the train and using the digital camera to record it. BTW Here is how I hooked it into the layout. EZ-Track comes in real handy for this.
