apt-e

Hi everyone, who is still following me. I am getting back on with N gauge APT-e after a long break, again, sorry. I am looking for powered bogies to fit into the powercars. Not sure if motor mounted on bogies or via a drive shaft. Still got , Lev 1, Testrol and maglev to complete. Best wishes everyone. Paul.

Hi, the nose is not finished in any shape or form. I am trying to get working lights into the design, Several option open, but at present, on the real printed model, this looks the best. All still very much in prototype.

Hi all, Been re-jigging the N APT-E model design. New powercars coming on, and have found a company that does great resign print, so will be interesting to see what they make of the latest version. In the meantime :- Best wishes. Paul

Thanks Mr Tilt. I sort of remember you saying that's what you used, but I was not sure until I did a bit of measuring.

Hi Neal, I am trying to find some bogies around 23mm axel spacing so that the ET bogie side can fitted. Class 33 is the closest so far, any suggestions anyone?

Hi All, Just a little something to get your teeth into about the APT-E N Gauge Model. The rough scan data is from ..................................... ???????? (Shhhhhhhhhh) Regards Paul

Hi all. Just to say, after a break due to family issues and work, I am back on with finishing off N gauge APT-E. I am looking for powered bogies that can have new sides fitted and at present, I am awaiting some samples of the nose cones and bodywork printed in resin from another company. Will keep you all posted as to progress. Got other models to also to complete. Hope everyone is well. Regards Paul.

Hi all, E train N Gauge has made slow progress, but is getting towards design completion. Updates to follow, watch this space. Regards Paul.

Next update.

Updated nose. Larger turbine vents. Light holes in the nose and Window.... Still needs a bit more resizing to the cab section. Regards Paul.

A little update. APT-E N gauge major test build 1. No details added, just a proof of concept. Got some extra smoothing and a little re-size on the nose to do. Thoughts please..... All printed in low resolution just for speed..... Bogies are for effect only, and are old pop 1 bogies.....

Lol Robert. I've heard K9 and Baboon plenty of times during my time being connected to the train. Gosh, that's 22 years since we started work on the train and the nrm. Lol

Next few updates to the nose.

APT-E N GAUGE PROTOTYPE 2 NOSE. Windscreen is just for effect, its all about the shape for now.

Lol, whenever I can afford one. Got 5 old sets already.........
