If this is the first if of my posts you are reading please read my other posts first. Start at the beginning as it were.

i built my first slip switch last summer. Using a Fast Tracks #8 double slip switch jig I built two single slip switches and two turnouts. These were the first bits of track I'd ever built by hand. I was truly impressed. So much so that I decided I'd build all my turnouts from now on.

Basic quest on laying flex track.

Swapping the Atlas switch throw

I saw a video in the last month that showed how to flip the throw of an Atlas turnout. I think Arthur Houston produced it.

Can someone share the link?

18" Gage Layout

Sat, 2013-01-19 20:00 — Greg Wolfe

This is My Buddy's 18" gage, 12" to the 1', Mine layout. It is located in Norther Nevada, on a 40 acre ranch. As you can see it's a point to point layout. Main line is about 40' long. No timetable. Full one way, empty the other. All equipment is operational.
