360 View of Crossed Anchors Railroads

When watching this video, we recommend using your phone and sitting in a chair you can spin in a circle to enjoy the full experience. If you have a VR headset, that also works great.

Does anyone have a track diagram or information on customers served by Guilford Rail in the 1980's in and around Woodsville NH?

Thanks!

Staging Yard

Finished the scenery on the staging yard, way easier and more fun than the 5 curved turnouts that I had to hand lay for it.

"Enterprise-Level" Model Railroading

Thu, 2021-01-28 03:12 — fmilhaupt

I've created this topic to move conversation on "enterprise-level" model railroading out of bobmorning's thread on the UWT-50 throttle, which a number of us have effectively hijacked.

Sunrise Feed Mill Kit

Wed, 2021-01-27 20:15 — cboyan43

I decided to buy this kit and make it.   I looked for other pictures of the kit and couldn't really find much.  I also felt the instructions were a bit on the light side.  So here are some of my thoughts and pics.  I will keep this short and put the pics in the replies.

In search of the "best" pre/post decal matte/gloss coat

Wed, 2021-01-27 19:30 — Craig Townsend

I've been struggling dealing with MicroMark raised surface decals and silvering. As a result, I came up with a test rig to test various matte & gloss coats that are available in an effort to find the ones that have the least amount of silvering.

More details about what I used and the results as they come forth.

Howdy all, I have an N Scale A&W Root Beer Stand by Twin Whistle that I'll be starting on next week and am wondering if anyone has had any experience with this kit. Any tips or things to look for ahead of building. One particular thing I'm looking into is adding LEDs .

Gluing a bowed plastic structure

Wed, 2021-01-27 12:51 — nelsonmay

I wasn't sure where to post this, so I am here for a start. I have an Ameri-town Kit that I purchased last summer. It is NIB. I was going to start to assemble it and I noticed that some of the walls are bowed. Do you guys get this a lot? What steps do you take to glue this kit together to keep the force on the wall from snapping the seams apart when glued. That is if I can get the bow out of it.

Here is what I am thinking.

1) Using a heat gun to straighten the walls. How could that be done?
