Jan 26th, 2019: Plarail
I have a vague idea of what’s going on here, but not a clue as to why.
These guys built a complete working model of the Tokyo subway system using Plarail. Wiki says... Quote:
As you can see this thing takes up a lot of room, so it’s not like a model railroad in someone’s basement that just gathers dust, and stuff gets stacked on it until you decide what to do with it. A lot of work for a short term existence. You won’t get to see it but you can ride it. Toot Toot. link

That is epic.
I noticed some yellow dividers taped down to the track with green tape, which looked weird Also, it looks like the tracks would work for Brio train toys. The video ends with the train approaching the loop/uturn. The loop looks super tight.. I would have liked to see the train go around the loop. Thank you xoB for the thread!

It seemed pretty rocky is spots, but it's a temporary setup so the probably resorted to duct tape in some cases.
As the camera zigged and zagged, especially at stations, that was bad enough. I think making the loop at the end would make me barf. Don't forget May 10th is the celebration of the 150th anniversary of driving the Golden Spike at Promontory Point Utah. Quote:
