Layout Design / Re: My new layout design.
« Last post by capeklr on September 16, 2025, 08:04:31 PM »
Hi all,
this is very embarrassing that I haven't posted here for so long.
Done little to nothing on the layout, but did spend some very nice hours just letting the trains run.
Also had a very pleasant holiday overseas. Made new friends in far away places.  ;)
In the meantime I repaired my bus, new battery and fitted front and rear lights to it. Sorry forgot to take photos.  ::)
Also got the level crossing working with the help of John. Without him I doubt that I would have gotten the Arduino coding right.
Still needs some fine tuning, but will try and do that soon.

N Scale / US T-trak layout
« Last post by Steve Smith on April 19, 2025, 08:23:45 AM »
Hi all,

Found this T-trak layout planned for a US show later in the year.  It looks as if a full circuit might even be an real time overnight run !

Hi all,
thanks for the positive comments.
I've been spending time on the tender.
First I removed and opened the cast on water hatch.
Then I made a brass ring and prepped the Weinert water hatch with a hinge.
My plan is to have this working with a small servo in the tender.  :)
Then I removed the cast on lights and hand rails.
Replaced with brass parts.
The lights will get individual Led's.
