I was able to build the frame and tops for the connecting portion from the helix to the yard body module. It's a funky shape with a curved back...
With only Sunday to go I plan to build the section connecting the helix to the yard frame I built last week. I need to replace the temporary legs,...
I took advantage of the a Scale Trains email offer and scored 6 coil cars. I would like 6 more but will wait.
My goal for the weekend is to build the lower level yard section. 13'10" long by varying widths. It will be another somewhat sectional two piece...
Todd, I think you would have liked my old layout yard. Train length was only ten cars and the yard reflected it. Everyone enjoyed running this....
I am so sorry for your loss Kitbash. Kudos to your two kids who gathered the strength to support you and the little woman.
Hey Todd, Yes, track 311 is the bypass to the other end and the reach to the back through double track mainline should end up around 36"....
Here is a version I like better. [ATTACH]
Working out my N scale yard design. This will be the main area where cars will be classified. At some point I will put this in Anyrail to confirm...
My workbench has my laptop,a box of flextrack, and pencil and paper. All to inspire me to take the next step in constructing the layout. I need to...
I need to add track to my upper staging before building and placing the lower level. It will just be easier to stand on flat ground rather than on...
A photo from my old SPIDGE layout. I think I took this with a Razor phone in the mid 2000's, so quality is not great. A set of SP Dash-9's pull a...
Just spitballing here as I am no expert but I am willing to bet there was a short which caused a voltage spike and it tossed the cv settings.
I was hoping to get staging into the corner but so far have the ladder wired and some track glued down. The Cobalts are powered off an accessory...
Turnouts are now glued in place but throbars need to be soldered to the pointrails. [ATTACH]
DCC controlled turnout accessory bus is in. Now for the track. Ugh! [ATTACH]
The 8 turnouts are built so now the first 8' section of staging is on the workbench. I hope to have the track down and wiring complete by the end...
Where are your priorities! Wait, maybe I've had it wrong for to long.
So I need four more #8 turnouts for one end of staging. [ATTACH]
OK, I decided to take the entire day and tinker in the garage. I was able to get quite a bit of backdrop set up. Now I need to begin building...
