Hi Guys,
I’ve become hooked on American Railroads...thank you Virtual Railfan!
I’m currently running an O gauge DCC British industrial layout, which will change without too much difficulty to an American Shortline as a lot of the buildings wouldn’t look out of place in an American setting. I’ve got some Weaver, Atlas and All Nation freight cars, an Atlas GP15-1, a Weaver GP39-2 and a couple of Atlas six wheel switchers which I’ve successfully converted to DCC Sound.
The British layout revolves around a cement works and a small harbour...sorry, Harbor ... starting to get a grip on the lingo.
The main buildings were constructed by the late Allan Downes and were originally ON30 scale which I have raised for British O Gauge and now I will have to raise again for American O!
I have some DCC questions, which I will post in the appropriate section, and hopefully someone will steer me in the right direction. It’s all a very steep learning curve, or should that be a very steep curved grade.
I’m hoping to meet many friends in here and post some pics as the conversion takes place
The last few pics are of the cement works, soo to become a corn flour mill...gives me an excuse to run tankers!
