Canton St. Paul & Pacific Railway. Op Sig Event NMRA Nat 2013

Layout tour

This is great stuff. We had a great time working on the railroad for four hours. I was brakeman. I could see all the number on the cars too. Do not pass up the chance if you have it to operate with the 7.5 track wide group.

Gulf & Western HO Modular Layout NMRA 2013

Layout tour

I was going to put Joe and the MRH booth up first but decided model trains are more important. This Modular Layout caught my eye. There were many at the show. Lighting, Building Structures, Effective use of Mirrors, along with a great consistent appearance.

N-Scale camera for layout trip wanted

Thu, 2013-07-18 23:34 — WaltP

I'm looking for a camera that can be used in N-Scale. I've see one so far and it looks like a thumb drive. But the instructions are so bad I could barely figure it out - then it quit working. "Wait for the earthquake" was one translation!

Anyway, can anyone recommend decent cameras of the proper size? And where to get them?

Ruphe Radial Railway, Inaugural Run plus some street photos

Thu, 2013-07-18 18:34 — On30guy

Layout tour

I've been working on the streets in the city of Ruphe and one of those streets will have a streetcar running over it. I figured it would be a lot easier to lay the tracks first and finish the street around it rather than trying to chisel in the rail afterward. You may laugh at that statement, but when I get into a project I tend to get impatient and frequently end up hitching the horse to the back of the cart!
