I ran the T Trak setup at the Austin area train show this weekend

This is Joe Sherve's end cap module


This is Terry Nathan's Skid Row module. Normally it has lights and sound effects (urban background noise like horns and traffic) but the AC power was having issues this weekend.


Here's a shot of one of my modules. The module behind it with the boxcars is also mine, I built it last weekend to be ready in time for the show, as we were concerned we would be short of modules. I should have taken a better picture, but I was kind of busy.

Have now added extension to my browser to prevent automated gifs from running so I can shut down the annoying repeats. 
Mark, I owe you an apology.  I was having a browser issue that prevented me from stopping the gif.  The truck is truly astounding- will be following your progress as I can see the technique to power it being useful for all sorts of small models.

Like it says after my signature: "Some things are better left unsaid....."

That's how they're supposed to work...

BTW, Mark, well done.

Thanks David.  Didn't you build a motorized MOW vehicle once before too? 

[peteski]

A big thumbs-up from me tool Well done!  I like the way you cleverly created a hybrid powered truck using N and Z scale parts.

JMaurer1, I am pretty certain that Joe kitbashed or scratchbuilt it himself. I'll ask him next time I see him.
