	Thank you Del for posting that. I am a railway fan, so it was very interesting to me. I noticed that the trains ran on a 4-rail system; the center rail being the return. There is a prototype for Lionel 3-rail trains. I love the names of the underground tube stations; so British. BTW, my parents were from England and Ireland (sorry for the latter). __________________ Mr.Ron from South Ms.
