The sentence "This allows visitors to run any engine they want without anything looking out of place." is false. If somebody were to run a locomotive from the 1800s or 2008, it would absolutely look out of place to somebody who knew their railroad history. Esahr (talk) 07:35, 25 June 2008 (UTC)
Changed to "This allows visitors to run a wide variety of model rolling stock without looking too anachronistic." It only took a decade. 8.19.241.10 (talk) 21:47, 14 December 2018 (UTC)
The Green Building lights were used for displays, though not for Tetris, shortly after it opened. This article, right now, has only a tiny fraction of what it could have (such as the 24 hour subway run in New York). Collect (talk) 06:02, 10 October 2008 (UTC)
Anyone know what this means:
The system were donated by the Western Electric College Gift Plan, from the phone company. The TMRC engineers could specify techniques by using of phone equipment, run and control a train.
I'm not what 'the system' is or who 'the phone company' is. And that second sentence??? Could someone translate and edit? 60.240.207.146 (talk) —Preceding undated comment was added at 03:21, 15 November 2008 (UTC).
I have tried to rephrase and correct some of the grammatical mistakes and confusions on this page, but it could do with a full rewrite. m3tainfo (talk) 07:26, 29 November 2008 (UTC)

There are references to both HO and H0 on the page. While either is 'correct' - it is more correct to choose one on a page, and stick with it. Can someone who is a member of the TMRC choose which one to use, and stick with it? Thanks! Jpbjoel (talk) 21:33, 28 March 2024 (UTC)
