It's possible to combine Unitrack straight and curve sections to make up many radii. Here's a selection of what can be done.

And there's an MRH forum thread on Unitrack turnouts that is very interesting. I didn't know about the differences in power routing for the #4 and #6 turnouts. It's something to keep in mind.

I just finished up a small cabin for my Sn3 exhibition layout. You can read all about it on my personal blog at: http://coloradosouthern.blogspot.com/

Enjoy if you visit!

This blog is going to cover my efforts to stop a helix looking like a wedding cake.

I am doomed to fail……………

However, my objective is to use every trick, tool and all advice given along the way, to minimize the visual problem that a helix presents.

A video by Michael Stokes on action at the Sue Lines, located in Shreveport, La. Great use of video, stills, rr sounds, and music. 

I have recently purchased two SW1500 RTR switchers, they are now DCC and run great (my first Athearn purchase).

There are a few opinions about the SW1000/1500's having different motors from the other RTR locos. I was considering a SD40-2 RTR dcc ready but I am reading a lot about Ready to REMOTOR or Rebuild, are they noisy? 

However the guy that owns the shop reckons they have the same motor as the sw1000/1500?

I decided to come over here with you great bunch of folks and see what your up to. I wanted also to share some of the things you might be interested in. I am a modeler that experiments with all kinds of things and looking for new idea's and assistance from people who know what they are doing!

Hi  Just been reading about EXCEL programs for a switching layout and or a full blown RR . Anyways have you looked at FLEX-BILL  by: the LATE STEVE KARAS & LEE NICHOLS.  It works like a lot of you would like it to work..

Go to Lee's RR  UTAH COLORADO & WESTERN  he has trial versions. The full blown program is only $50 and there is a ton of reports and options included..     BILL P   SIGNALGUY 

  This an Update on the RL&G. Track laid and Industries being placed. More to follow. Black Cat is extra..   

Here are a few shots of The Greater Nickel Plate shot by Daniel Denegre visiting from San Francisco with Peggy's daughter, Sarah over the holidays. He's got a different perspective - and a better camera too!

Made some more headway with my coal shed scene...
