Made some progress on the right of way this week. Established the final track plan, got the outer loop corked, and roughed in enough wiring to run a couple of trains.I'm going to sculp out some background cliffs from the foam panels against the walls.Naturally, now that they have a proper habitat, the Old locomotives have entered a realm of existential crisis. The valve gear on my Bachmann 060 is binding, and the 040 shifter is making hellish noises.So, to prepare for foam scenery and engine work, today I built a foam engine as part of the,scenery for my stepdaughter's school musical...Lee
You’ve got a couple of nasty S curves there on the left side. Good luck with that with those long passenger cars.
That's a lot of tea kettles!
The way the table is wired, I need to keep an eye on which end is up for track polarity. Having a control stand at one ends helps with that.Lee
Tested the motor on the turntable, it works fine... no indexing. But when I was in high school, I learned how to land a manually operated elevator... it's just a matter of time till I can butter pancakes with that thing.
