Just got one of these in vgc and know about the deep flanges. Did anyone ever offer replacement wheels for these? I might regear it and was...
Another recent purchase. [ATTACH]
Just picked up 4 Bowser X31a off eBay unbuilt for less than $8 each ship and tax included. They’re in very good condition. Well bought I think....
My wife and I were in Maui and passed by there a few times. It looked like it was shut down. Did I miss something? I’d hate to have to go back!...
I’m thinking of making my layout capable of running either dc or dcc. Not simultaneously. I have some locos that I want to keep my tinkering hands...
[ATTACH] 25° mitre box. Made a mistake on the angle so I marked it red. Green line is the correct one.
Started on a CV Models 1902 150’ Pratt truss bridge. Very involved but fun kit to build. I have the base completed but have yet to put the rail in...

Settled on a track plan and have been working at it when the weather is not so nice. Made some progress with the track work today. If the brown...
I may have a spot for a slightly curved turnout. That is what made me look at them. Trying to have the track go in such a way that a curved...
What’s the general feeling on these? I’d like to give one a try but would like some feedback. I’ve never built anything remotely hand laid and...
