I am not sure. It's somewhat heavy, but I have managed to carry it myself up the stairs in my house, slung under an arm with my other arm holding...
Good point. I think this will work. :-) Thanks.
Good point. I think my issue is I don't have a traditional runaround. I have something made from all left turns: ...==========......
Hmm. Track plans I have seen for the classic timesaver have a runaround where the top of the runaround only has room for one car. In that case,...
I have a really small runaround - enough for a locomotive to run around a 40' wagon. What is the best way ya'll have found to couple up against...
Toggled all my turnouts to non power routing. Makes a lot of sense this way anyway. I like the idea of isolating a section of track with...
Thanks guys. This turnout has only been in use for less than a month. The other #6 I have doesn't have this issue. I'm not sure it's oxidation...
I have a problematic Kato #6 turnout from an HV2 passing set. It has worked well for some time, but sometimes lately, when the turnout is set in...
I have a Kato HO GP35 (2015 release). Sometimes when running, it makes a rattling noise. This most happens when running in reverse. I checked...
I figured out for my purposes I could use all left turnouts, for example. This makes sure you can always add middle pieces and it all stays...
I posted a couple weeks ago asking for feedback / ideas on creating an Inglenook shelf layout. Well, I have done that using Kato track pieces,...
I'm trying to figure out what track pieces I need in order to make a runaround using HO Kato unitrack pieces. I'm using SCARM, and having trouble...
This is really crazy and discouraging. So their goal isn't even to make money or move inventory? If someone buys it, great... But otherwise,...
Sometimes people charge even more than brand new track costs. I've rarely found people charging less than the cost of new track, and if so, the...
These look great! Thanks! Volume 2 clearly shows NYC road name pulling a train. Not repainted yet. Really interesting!
I used to geocache, and I remember hearing that some guys would wear safety vests and hard hats so they wouldn't seem suspicious when "poking...
Well, if time on a layout is frozen in 1968-1969, there's room to imagine things going better than they actually did. :-) Historical fiction, if...
Fascinating. You could actually see a PRR road name locomotive hauling freight on an old NYC line?
Very interesting. Surely they couldn't black out all the old road names that very first year though, right? You'd see some PRR and NYC road...
