I picked the second option, although I probably fall somewhere in between the 2nd and 3rd option. I stressed too much about trying to push the...
That Diemeltal layout is amazing. Extremely well done.
Nice little mod to take away some of the harshness of the open pilot. Thanks for sharing. I bet at normal viewing (versus the "O-Scale" photos...
Welcome, Kirby. I'm not far from you...Fate is about 25 miles from our home. (Lake Highlands/NE Dallas) I'm mostly an armchair modeler (moved...
Hmm, which part..."accidental ripoff artist" which is a phrase I just made up? Sure. Basically it means that he's not purposefully trying to...
He did a lot of his marketing to drive investors to his project via the forums, so I hardly think he's immune to criticism via this same mechanism.
No argument. Finish the project, deliver something....anything....and it's a different conversation entirely. But David sold us on a product...
...And he's pocketing $2,000.00 despite not delivering anything. ...And whining about not getting more.
Howdy and Happy Friday! Does anybody know if someone currently makes a Superior boxcar door to fit the Micro-Trains modern/no-roofwalk 50ft...
I think you're going to find that 1/10" to be a lot more noticeable than you think. The signature "stubby" look of the F40PH matters, IMHO....
Excellent point....build the layout with Rokuhan and don't look back. It will operate as well as Z possibly can unless you are an ace...
You can use the Rokuhan turnouts as-is and just leave the roadbed alone if you're using a similar height roadbed for the Peco flex track....
Great tip, thanks!
Nice work Gerd, as always. :notworthy: Athearn's N-scale model just uses a hard plastic piece that sort of "floats" over the truck bolster....
Yeah, I think just more breaking in may be necessary, but I'll be watching for your results. Mine are on the way and I have one of each color so...
Came across this photo. https://www.flickr.com/photos/bnsfds/20354976178 Not dated, but this is the train I remember seeing often from my perch...
Howdy Hemi!!! Been too long. (really...this thread was eons ago!!! lol) Yes, I have been able to find a few pics of the CCTX FMC cars over the...
Well, especially in my case! Funny thing...just as easily as you can install a decoder, you can uninstall a decoder and bring the value right...
What I assume to be a "first release" GP38-2 ran so good that it pulled me completely into Z-scale. It was a UP (different scheme than the...
I'd say in Z, a decent (Woodland Scenics) grass mat would give you a nice manicured lawn look.
