I trust you added a drip of washing up liquid to help with surface tension. regarding the paint codes, just type in google rail match scot rail, or rail match dutch etc etc for whatever livery you want and I think it is a Fox Transfers link or something which lists all the rail match paint codes for each livery Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

47606odin Posted May 10, 2019 Author Share Posted May 10, 2019 I have put off on my last 2 layouts, building the traverser/sector plate/fiddle yard, because I was never sure the best way to build something reliable. I kept looking at this one, and kept stalling, and if I stalled much longer, I was starting to think it would stop this layout too, and I can’t let it happen again so, I have started. I am still not sure how this will turn out, but I have started 3 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

47606odin Posted May 12, 2019 Author Share Posted May 12, 2019 Thank you work. My layout now has a traverser paid for in the most by my Bunnings voucher, although I have run out of track this is is the first traverser I have built, and it works quite nicely, although I have to fit a slide rail under the join to prevent the table drooping at the front 3 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Steve. That video should come sooner rather than later due to less procrastinating, which is what the issue with the traverser was and the YOB is. I may do too much thinking before I do things, but I like to do things that will last and won't bug me in the future. Ian Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
47606odin Posted May 13, 2019 Author Share Posted May 13, 2019 The traverser is 95% complete and bolted up to the layout. The physical construction of the layout is practically finished. Time to start on the actual modelling proper 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
