A Little Bit of Everything: Model Railroad, Live Steam, and Real Trains
There's a little bit of everything in this video. If you want to see how much railroad-related action I can pack into one day, follow along...
3D Printing in HO, endless possibilities...
Well this week I decided to delve down the rabbit hole that is 3D printing.
Many who follow along with my blog/progress would have seen the signal system that I have installed and the older IHC plastic heads that I used for my Triangular Colour Light - Signal Heads. Whilst these are good, they're not perfect, and they've bugged me for awhile, and until I could find a better alternative.
New Freight Cars and Old Metal Stuff!
Enjoy my latest video featuring some new additions to the layout. I will be sharing my progress on my club layout module soon in (hopefully) a new series.
The S&NE Railway
I’ve posted the beginnings of a new journal on the new (temporary) forum site. I hope you will check it out and comment!
Thanks for looking.

Looking for assistance! -N Scale single slip switches
Experimenting with some N Scale singles slip switches today.
I am hoping to build a new yard with the slip switches and laid them out temporarily to see how well they perform.
Basement shop and train room planning with 3D walkthrough
Where equipment goes and how materials move through the shop is important for sanity as well as safety. Best laid plans of mice…
Started by measuring all the existing workbenches, countertop and shelves. A basic inventory of what I have, so I can arrange them on some mock ups.
HO Switching Layout Build...Old Ply Industrial area
Gday all been reading these blogs and articles for years and never really posted much. Both My son's layout module and my own have been at a standstill for a while and we are now working to get things going again in the train room...
I just had a massive cleanout of the spare room to get the floor space cleared out just so we can walk into the room without needing life support and a day pack...lol
All that aside, here is Old Ply industrial getting the love it deserves. I will post in Youtube feeds just to make as little reading as I can for everyone.
future train room
Got moved into our new home. I am looking forward to getting started on the layout, but have a few things I have to take care of first. One thing im working on is putting in a split air conditioner. Does anybody have any experience with these?
Another concern I have is running 2 air conditioners and what that will do to my electric bill. So Monday morning I have a guy coming to give us an estimate on putting in solar panels.
