about 2/3 way down the page...
Now Carl is a good friend of mine (and there is a piece by me just above the article in question). It is his site and he's free to feature what he likes on there. But it does seem a tad wrong to suggest T gauge for this plan. In light of the comments he made regarding the running qualities of the stock in an earlier update.

Carl and I have had a brief back-and-forth about T, and he can get kind of prickly about things. That's all I'll say about it.

Indeed, I do remember reading that on his website. Also, considering how he seemed to feel before about T, I'm curious how well a single motor car and head car would operate after any actual period of time. On my train, it would often derail pushing the car through curves, and the engines seem to pull better than they can push, right? Although, not only does the layout have no curves, but I had my train running at school for about 20 minutes with no problems, switching between loops and point-to-point. Also, what would happen if a T engine was operated on a short auto-reversing point-to-point layout over extensive periods of time?
