    Brick size?

    Thanks Wayne, it was a no go as I went through 32 pages in Google. I'm still hoping someone will know. When I get the right size I'm going to make each brick to that size and then cement them around the opening of the tunnels.

    O Gauge Questions About The Track

    Andrew, thanks for your help. I thought that's the way it would be, coming from the center. But better to be sure than sorry. I'm going to start building the layout before I order the track. What kind of power unit should I use for a layout of this size or would I need more than one...
