Has anyone tried the ghost white laser toner? I have a printer that they make cartridges for and was thinking of giving it a try. The only...
Saddle tank ordered! New 0-6-0 chassis on hand. You have done a good thing Rudy.
Really nice! Marklin should have done this 20 years ago.
No no no: GWR Pannier. Brass! I just need some simple G W R decals. I wonder if the Marklin 8804, 8864, 8865, 8134 81409 0-6-0 diesel would be...
Nice. I think I just got into British Z. Where are the decals from?
Love it!
JoeS, We will see if Rudy can come up with something for an unmodified chassis, but I suspect there will need to be some modification to attach...
Rudy, I don't seem to have any plans for NP #924. I would just use the New Haven plans, move the cab up and maybe stretch it a bit to cover the...
I didn't realize Marklin had redesigned the motor configuration in the 88001. To add to the variety, the new starter set versions have a vertical...

I find when connecting curved flex track to a turnout, it is better to solder the joints than to use the plastic joiners. The plastic joiners...
British steam is one one the reasons I still play with N scale. I like what you have managed to build in Z so far. Looking forward to you...
My 1st gen runs great and its frame has no issues. I though the problem with 1st gen was poor zinc casting causing some frames to crack/crumble....
Welp, I’m wrong on that count. The old B dummy units have a larger shell wall thickness in the center and will not fit over the powered chassis....
I think the easiest way is to improve the performance of the unpowered B is to buy a power unit for these. Pennsylvania and Conrail seem to be the...
Does anyone have a Rokuhan 2-6-4? It looks like it could be a decent candidate for a 2-6-0 conversion, but it kind of depends on how far back the...
For acrylic thinner, I Use Tamiya X-20A acrylic thinner.
