I have no idea the level of scenery on that layout. But that scene does look finished! I watched a few other video's where they put a rail cam or...
In spite of DCC, there are a lot of model railroads still with DC. They work just fine. You just need to throw the block switches for multiple...
It appears some things are cheaper from Europe. Which makes no sense at all. I know nothing about duties and other fees if any. So far no issues...
So I am also looking on ebay, anyone have any issues ordering supplies from Croatia?
Oops, I missed it. SE has them categorized by size. That helps a lot I think.
I have one of those tennis racket bug zappers. So I am going to make a static grass applicator. Thats the easy part. I want to buy some 6mm and...
Time for the "rusty spike ceremony" I just laid the first bit of track! During the building of the transcontinental railroad, some crews laid as...
It is done, didn't take as long as I thought. The temp section is cut to fit and so I can build the bridges at the workbench. Now the track gang...
I had thoughts of this before I put down the roadbed. It just took me a moment of sanity to come to my senses and do it now. This will be just a...
I will order some samples or whatever they have and see how it looks. I like the looks of their larger stone also for rip rap and rock falls.
I have built and marked out a small interchange yard, about 10 feet long. I put up the L girder bench with homasote glued to 1/2 ply. The area I...
I bought a bag of playsand. Its a bit of a mix of sizes so I will try screening it and see what I end up with.
On their ebay page they show Northern Pacific grey 1302 and 1303. Hard to tell actual size as there is no track for reference and the lighting is...
Yeah, I think I will order a bag to see how I like it. My other complaint about some ballast is it is solid color. The stuff I see is a mix of...
For someone with a utube channel I would think it a good project. Make up a bunch of 1 foot track segments with multiple colors and sizes, from...
I am almost ready to lay a little bit of track. I want to use scenery express #40 grey blend ballast. It appears to match pretty close the stuff...
I started a blog page. Not sure if that is the best way to chronicle the construction of "stevie's model railroad" I don't have a name for the...
I expect the laptop PS will suffice until I start operating more than a few loco's at once. If I expand beyond that, I think I would buy the...
Yeah, servo's have a lot of uses on a model railroad. Especially at 10 for 25 bucks. If you could slow it down you could have a scale figure turn...
Are you using the RC servo's to power switch machines? They are cheap and appear perfectly suited for the job.
