Layout Showcase / Re: My first layout

Not much on the train track building front.
Spend most of my time building my sidecar onto the BIG bike.

But in the evenings I sat down in front of my computer and try and get to grips with Arduino and DCC ++.

Well after 3 weeks or so I can no program my diesel loco with sound and my diesel without sound to run under LMRI.
What a learning curve.

First of all I this is my first encounter with DCC and the first time I had an Arduino in my hands. But it is fun and satisfying when you get it right...EVENTUALLY.

Nou gaan ons treitjies ry pappie  ;D

I must say that I got the turnouts and extra track for a good price, but it took me all evening to clean the old soldered rail joiners off the turnouts.
Now to the shops to go and buy new joiners

I will not be buying his latest haul of tracks, so keep it and maybe he has something else in the future where we can combine shipping.

Great.  Just the one door is missing.  If you have one I would really be a happy chappy.
I might buy some stuff of BE.... so maybe we can pop it into the same bag.
What about a turntable to go with this ?

Met another guy and he is stopping with N and only carrying on with his HO setup.
All the buildings I got when I bought my MiniTrix stuff in Holland was all HO scale.
So we SWOPPED some HO for N-Scale buildings.
In the back his old N-scale layout was just gathering dust.....so for a small fee I agreed to remove it off his property to make the place looking tidier.  :thumb:
