    Need Some More Advice

    I have a small N Scale layout with 3 sidings. I have 5 locos with sound and all the goodies. A steamer, small switcher, 3 more Diesels. One is a Bachmann Union Pacific with double engines. Getting lots of rolling stock now, but wondering how much load I can pull without overloading or damaging...

    Stevensville, Colorado

    Iron Horseman : I was able to post a Utube video of 2 months ago, but can't seem to post another one of 2 weeks ago. I'll keep trying. I know you're probably not interested in my small layout, as you're looking for something quite large and sophisticated compared to mine. But I like to show it...

    Beginning to plan layout in eanest, need ideas - part 1 background.

    Actually, I thought of many old towns in Colorado that I've been to often when I lived there. Also looked at many aerial views on their websites. As a beginner and for a small N Scale Layout, figured I would not be able to replicate any of them so decided to do the best I could of a fictional...

    Beginning to plan layout in eanest, need ideas - part 1 background.

    Wow! You guys are talking "big time" layouts. Can't imagine the work ahead of you. My little N Scale Layout 66"x42" turned out really nice, but still took 5 and half months and still have a little more to do. 3 months just for layout research, theme, etc before that. Would enjoy seeing your...

    Track Cleaning

    Wow, thanks for that information. I'm a newbie to this and have a lot to learn. Your alternatives sound good, so I'll give them a look and try them out. My layout is in a screened in patio in the Texas Hill Country, so it does get a little dust, but not much. I am planning on installing a pull...

    Track Cleaning

    I'm almost finished with my new N Scale Layout. I've been using the hand held small "abrasive track eraser" to clean my track and it seems to do the job. But I'm concerned about wearing the track rails. Do the "cleaning cars" available actually work well and what are the best ones to use. Are...

    Willis, thank you so much for your help. I THINK I understand, but seems to be more complicated than it should. Suppose there are good reasons for the protocol. Hope I learned something and doesn't happen again. I really do appreciate your help, and thanks again. patriothonor Jack Sent from...

    It's on the Model Railroad Forum, N Scale, but don't know how to get the info to you as requested. It's titled "Stevensville, Colorado Update". The "WATCH" post is okay. They're the ones that don't preface with "WATCH" that I can't seem to delete. Sent from my XT1254 using Tapatalk
