Ask Trains is a regular video feature of Trains.com for magazine subscribers and Trains.com members, where editors answer the questions readers and viewers are asking.
Special guests can include editors and contributors from Model Railroader, Trains, Classic Toy Trains, Garden Railways and Trains.com.
Questions can be about any railroad or model railroading topic. These can include questions about railroad operating practices, railroad lantern manufacturer details, model locomotive details, and toy train transformers, among others.
Trains.com and Model Railroader Senior Editor Cody Grivno works through many of these questions, which are posted twice a week, each week, all year! See all our answers to questions online!
FWIW, paper towel and toilet paper tubes work very well in HO Scale, and most of us have a readily available supply. I have found that with a little care and balance of the work, these can be set up on end while the paint tacks or dries, as may be the case.
Cool, easy and inexpensive tools to use!
