Wed, 2014-04-16 06:24 — jmt99atsf

Latest update on the construction of the N-scale ATSF Paradigm Division (see my previous April 2014 blog item to see the track plans). UPDATED with new pictures and video on 17 April and 27 April.

The physical construction of the staging level, that is, supporting benchwork, roadbed (I use it even in staging yards) and track were completed on 16 December 2013.

ATSF Paradigm Division Track Plans

Tue, 2014-04-15 06:45 — jmt99atsf

I thought that I had posted the track plans at one time but I guess that I had not since I could not find them on the blog. So here they are.

The overall size of the N-scale layout is 24' 11" x 15' 4".  Minimum aisle width is 36".  The layout is located in a dedicated outbuilding.

Taskboard Tie Strips

Sun, 2014-04-06 12:18 — Bernd

Originally I posted a question on Taskboard because I had seen Michael Rose use it on his N scale layout. So I thought I'd give it a try for TT scale size strips. I had bought the Taskboard and had a local laser shop cut some test strips. When I posted this picture both in the TTnut forum and here members were saying that it would warp because it's made from card board.

BEMO gear-drive switch motors

Can anyone help? This question came to MRH World Headquarters:

A friend from a MRR Club had a hobby shop in Germany. I picked up some small, gear driven, DC motors made by
BEMO, model # 4225 (currently 4425-000) from his estate and am attempting to use them to control the points on some N Scale Peco turnouts.

Taskboard for Tie Strips

Fri, 2014-04-04 09:26 — Bernd

I know Michael Rose has used Taskboard for tie strips and I have had some cut out by a local laser guy.

The question I have is how does this stuff stand up against ballasting with water based glue. Will it warp?
