FastTacks Bullfrog

Fri, 2013-11-22 11:02 — marzbarz

I'm leaning towards using the bulfrogs and need some advice. First of all they power the frog and are not sticking out the side of the track like caboose manual turnout controls. The only issue I have is my layout consists of 2' foam on framing. The bottom of the layout is foam, not sure how I would mount these. Anyone have some good pictures or instructions on how to do this?

     Carrying on from my last blog, my other passion at present is travel. We have traveled to most parts of Australia and overseas we have been to the UK 8 times and to Ireland, Europe, South East Asia, New Zealand. Fiji, Hawaii, Canada and Alaska. In 2011 my wife and I bought a small motor-home in which we plan to explore the more "off the beaten track" places in Australia.

Here are a few views of my O scale railroad the Charles City Western. The layout is 100% modular although I don't take any of them to shows any more, too much work getting the out of the room. Most of the power is rebuilt atlas WDT industrial switchers. It is a switching layout Inbound cars are received from interchanges at either end of the railroad (removable storage trays) and spotted to the local industries. It can take a two hours to make a round trip.    

Looking for a Ian Rice Track Plan

Wed, 2013-11-20 09:25 — McRuss

Hello,

maybe someone out there could help me. I'm looking for a trackplan made from Ian Rice. It was printed I think in one of Model Railroaders supplements. It was 4x8 feet trackplan, which he converted to a shelf layout desing. If I'm right there was a small wharf and a cannery.

Thank you for your help.
