First shots going forward.    These are sections from the old layout.   Much modification ahead.    GMO711

Since I now have a respectable length (~60', N-scale) of mainline laid, including a runaround at the far end, I got the rolling stock out and started to run some trains. Which means I'm finding things like dodgy track work and this:

Double-stack won't clear mousehole

And that, children, is why your NMRA track and clearance gauge is your friend.

Custom DCC Throttle Holder KIT

Wed, 2014-03-19 07:31 — Joe Baldwin
 
Found it on EBAY, precision laser cut hardboard/masonite, glue together and paint. Allows FULL access to all Digitrax Buttons without taking the throttle out of the pocket.  Nice product.  Only $3.00 and comes in two models for Digitrax, engineer and full size.  Other DCC brands supported as well.

Conductive glue

Has any one used this adhesive? I have a ME turnout that my frog led has come off ( poor solder joint). I can reach the solder pad on the ME from under the layout, ply and foam, I'm trying to avoid a tearout on the top side of my yard. Any help appreciated.
