		<description><![CDATA[When you plan a small model train layout, it&#8217;s important that you know the limitations the small space imposes on you and your model train set. Although the space you have available for your RR layout might limit your choice of scales, the major limitation is usually in the choice of themes you can model. [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Most model railroaders have far more cars (rolling stock) and locomotives than they can possibly operate at once. One option is to simply store excess rolling stock and locomotives in boxes or on display shelves or cabinets. It is possible, however, to store all of your extra equipment and trains on tracks in a yard [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[A locomotive runs by picking up an electrical current from the metal rails through metal wheels that ride on the rails. The electricity is transferred from the wheels to the motor, which causes the motor to run. The motor connects to the wheels through a mechanical drive system. When the electricity turns the motor, the [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Branch lines are a popular theme for small model train layouts. A branch line is a quieter alternative to a main line layout and can be fascinating to build and operate. Although not always the case, a branch line layout generally requires less rolling stock. It can also mean greater flexibility in the complexity of [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Model train track consists of two metal rails separated by plastic tie sections. Each rail carries one side of the electrical circuit. To work properly, the two rails should not contact each other and no metal object should contact both rails together. This would cause a short circuit, which could damage your model train power [...]]]></description>
