I can't imagine passing that spike naturally
Thanks Charlie, a nicely written warning for those of us with a low threshold for pain and surprises....
Wow! What a story. Thanks for sharing it.
I can't believe someone would be stupid enough to put things that small in their mouth! He says it was Z scale? Didn't even know they made 1:220 spikes.
From the State of California comes yet another health warning. "Studies have found HO scale spikes is hazardous to your health and should be installed by trained professionals". Icon_e_surprised

I use a baby food jar lid for holding HO spikes while laying track.  Goldth
