Finally, another update

Mon, 2014-05-05 02:13 — johnybgood18

Hi guys,

It has been a long time since I was able to work on my layout!  The birth of my daughter and taking care of my 2 year old son took the best part of my time.  There was also an issue with some trackage that I didn't fix properly after the move last March that was haunting me and I thought it would be a huge thing fixing it all...  Well, guess what, it took the best part of 30 minutes, and most of that time was waiting on the soldering iron to heat up!

I recently posted this picture of the Atherton engine facility asking if anyone could spot the deliberate error.

Reboxx Wheelsets out of square?

Sun, 2014-05-04 11:48 — Bill Brillinger

Has anybody experienced problems with Reboxx wheels being out of square?

I have a pack of 1.045" axle length 36" wheel sets and most of them seem to be out. One wheel is tipped in slightly.

Exaggerated view:

ATSF Paradigm Division - Staging Level Construction Update 2

Sun, 2014-05-04 05:26 — jmt99atsf

I have now completed the wiring of Staging Yard "A" (10 tracks) on the near side of the peninsula.  It took about 35 hours over two weeks to complete the wiring job.  All 10 tracks can be turned on or off via the SPDT switches located in the recessed openings in the fascia and each track has an LED power-on indicator. The switches were recycled from my previous DC layout.

how does grain get to the silo?

Sat, 2014-05-03 11:14 — casenundra

I am building a silo in N scale and was wondering how the grain is transported to the silo. Most likely by truck; but, what kind of truck? Is an N scale model of the truck available?
