Longhaireddavid Posted August 11, 2019 Share Posted August 11, 2019 I have a nice little Marklin 3 Rail/ECoS based railway in our bedroom. The full story is on my blog. The latest addition is as follows: Latest news on the Pennstadt and Valdorf line. I have had some fun getting the lights on my push-pull train sorted. Then I had some extreme difficulties sorting out an Arduino protected power supply. Gentle Model Railways 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Longhaireddavid Posted October 22, 2019 Author Share Posted October 22, 2019 My first attempt at a Marklin layout proved to be too restrictive for my wants so I have taken it down and started again. This first effort came down quite quickly, which belies all of the effort put into it. One good thing about living in a block of apartments is the large bin room in the basement. Two trips and everything was gone! Now comes the fun of building the next one. My first blog post covers the physical building of the layout. I will cover the design, etc. in a future post.
