THE FAST STRAW

This is a new one on me, a straw railway!

I saw this online and thought, wow! What a clever simple idea! This set's by Imco, who I've come across before.

What do you think readers? Did it catch on?

    What a neat idea. No need to buy track, just save your old straws, and increase the size of your layout. With Whistle Sound and Blinking Light.

    1. Ha ha, and when you got thirsty you could have a drink with a straw too!

  3. My Humble (Esso) Rocket Transporter premium runs on a straw based track, such a brilliantly simple idea! Bill

    1. That's a fab rocket toy Bill and I love the MOLAB art in the last picture. What happened to Humble I wonder?
