I am going to use Fast Tracks turnouts so I download the PDF templates and draw them in Autocad for use. Make them blocks and you can rotate them...
Never took a train on but did get stopped by the Korean screeners in Seoul once for supposed weapons in my checked bag. After they called me over...
Start small. Going all out now is likely to bring frustration and something you will never finish. I know since it happened to me. As far as...
Can you say battery powered N scale? Battery technology has done well in the last couple years and I venture to say some of the LiPo batteries are...
Thanks all for the comments so far. I have not spent much time on in the last week so I have not replied to anything yet. I have changed up a...
Hi all, While I have toyed with numerous layout ideas in the past I am now living in an apartment during the week due to a new job and have...
Anyone know of a good hobby shop in Oklahoma City that carries a good bit of N scale stuff? Heading out there in a couple weeks for a week and...

Well after screwing around for so many years and not building a layout I have decided to build one finally. I have been planning many layouts...

That would work too. I love the North Montana area, especially when I lived there. However, the more I think about it the more that area does...
I'd love to see what you come up with. I have spent a lot of time reading the Morning Sun books on the eastern side of the MILW. There is a...
I hadn't planned on a loop at the top right end of the benchwork, however, I do like your idea to use a false backdrop and conceal staging behind...
Oh don't tempt me LOL I'd love to but cost for Z scale stuff seems way out of my league from what I can tell. John
True, 11 feet may be more than I need but it is better to have one that is too long versus too short. I did not get much time to think trains...
I am planning on 20-25 car trains so I need about 11' passing sidings to make sure I have room for each. I am thinking about 1 siding at the...
