Paul, it looks like "Him" is not helping you in your spelling. :-) Sorry to see that.

When I want things permanantly attached to a modular layout (N scale), I usually "pin" them to the layout.

Like figures: I drill into the foot using a #80 bit, then glue a 0.012" brass wire to it. I leave about 1/4" sticking out. Then I drill another hole lin the layout and glue the wire in.

You can do the same fop vehicles. Either drill and glue 2 tires, or just single pin in the middle of the underside. You could probably use heavier wire (like 0.020" or 0.032").

That way you don't have to worry about seeing any glue, and you have a solid attachment point.

and the Lord spake to Bill and did sayeth

I'm sorry, what?

In other words - I would enjoy having a go at helping, but I don't understand the question
