The lighting is primarily track lighting with a mixture of incandescent and LED bulbs. Jim Date: 01/23/23 20:19 Re: Mechanical Reefers at National Orange Author: TT Are those the Rapido cars? Is the roofwalk popping up on the car on the left?

I dabbled in the hobby a little a couple of different times. I admire the skill, especially the level you've presented here. In the end, it was just "too much like work" for me to stick with it. Date: 01/24/23 15:34 Re: Mechanical Reefers at National Orange Author: spjim TT Wrote:

And yes, the roofwalk is popping up on the car at the left. I hadn't noticed it it before reading your question but I checked today and it's worse than when the photo was taken.

A friend told me later that everyone should go there... once.
