Modeling topic
My first module
This is my first module. The first tentative steps beyond just collecting.
This module is a mainline through a tunnel over a small bridge beside a stream in the mountains. Inspired by Pelle Soeborg. Hopefully it will look like a piece of the Canadian Rockies.
These are how it was looking a few week ago after I'd completed the first ground cover layers.
Ruby Canyon scenery advice needed
Now that my benchwork is getting but back after some basement remediation work, I want to start working on scenery. I have a section that I want to have some sandstone cliffs which look like Ruby Canyon in eastern Utah near the border with Colorado. I've already put in some cardboard webbing as a base which has some vertical walls with some angled sections. I'm planning on using some plaster impregnated gause I have to cover part of it, maybe use some plaster with netting after I run out of what I have.
Broadway Limited Niagara 4-8-4 jumping Peco turnouts
Hello to all, and Merry Christmas as well. I am looking for some input for a problem I am having. I recently purchased a Broadway Limited Niagara 4-8-4 and a NCE DCC System. I am running HO, Code 100 Atlas flex track, and Peco medium turnouts. Minimum radials on the layout is 22 degrees. The front guide truck on the locomotive seems to jump the frog on one switch, and jump the track before the frog on the other one. Just those 2 switches. All others seem fine. This was a DC layout until I converted it to DCC.
SPSF Meadow Subdivision
Here's a tour of my SPSF Meadow Sub, which is set in late summer 1998 in southeast Nebraska, an ex-Rock Island branchline. Layout construction began in March 2010 and the layout has evolved a little since then with some track reconstruction and the addition of the Belt Line extension about a year ago.
Details follow in the next post.
