pendlerail Posted November 1, 2009 Author Share Posted November 1, 2009 Yet another depot layout by pendlerail original page on Old RMweb __________________________________________ ??? posted on Wed Feb 11, 2009 7:34 pm Hi folks, thought I would put my efforts on, my depot has been a long time in the making and has been altered a couple of times, http://depotlayout.fotopic.net/p56360589.html This is the view from the Fiddle siding, http://depotlayout.fotopic.net/p56360590.html and from the other end http://depotlayout.fotopic.net/p56360591.html the Fueling point, haven`t decided between the Knightwing kit or the Bachmann one yet http://depotlayout.fotopic.net/p56360592.html the depot building from above http://depotlayout.fotopic.net/p56360797.html And Rough plan took the opportunity of a move round of the room to show with no stock on, It is a DCC layout with NCE powercab, I run anything from 1980's to modern, I thought I am trying to stick more to BR days, let me know what you think, Thanks Phil __________________________________________ ??? posted on Thu Feb 12, 2009 2:52 pm Have used miliput for the fueling point track fill, Lighting is on the cards but no signaling as yet, if I do will only be ground signals on the exit roads, have a small collection of kits to build for it. Only just managed to get a dedicated work bench so should speed working up, track is a mix of Hornby and Lima Settrack type stuff, as an experiment for "future projects" am pleased so far. points are controled by Seep point motors and Lenz 150s. this is my 1st attempt at a fully senic railway, had a few trainsets b4 then gave up for about 20 years until I heard DCC at an exibition Phil __________________________________________ ??? posted on Tue Apr 21, 2009 3:54 pm not much been happening as you can tell had a bit of time today and added some signs and lights not wired up yet __________________________________________ ??? posted on Tue Apr 21, 2009 6:34 pm It has happened before lol, i was going to use a seperate controller on my workbench but it got lost when moving house so can't afford to purchase another, will just have to be very carefull lol, I have some buffer lights powered from the track so use them to check power to rest of layout for now. As to the concrete I bought it in a pot from an exibition it comes with lumps in it, may be hard to sand out lol, but it does sometimes catch on one or two of my engines __________________________________________ ??? posted on Tue Apr 21, 2009 6:57 pm I have a NCE powercab, they do a accesory that turns off the rest of the layout when you put use program track, space is the missing elemenet lol. Its just the way I have always done it, this is really just an experiment to learn what works for me for a possible future layout in a garage __________________________________________ ??? posted on Tue Apr 21, 2009 7:56 pm I have Lenz LS150 point decoders, the power cab is my 3rd controller, started off with the Hornby select then got a Multimaus but it wouldn't consist so got the Powercab which I am fairly happy with for now lol __________________________________________ ??? posted on Tue May 05, 2009 12:13 am not happy with concrete at the moment, too rough and the trains don't seem to like it. not sure what the answer is at the moment?? could be a lift and relay thing __________________________________________ ??? posted on Mon Sep 14, 2009 10:01 am Been a while and some things have happened on shed, I now have a car park and added some lighting, the concrete section has been lifted and relayed too progress is slow but I do get the odd moment to add stuff, the wall at the back is yet to be fixed in place Phil __________________________________________ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

pendlerail Posted January 24, 2010 Author Share Posted January 24, 2010 Moved away from Nelson because I work for Northern at Man Vic now. I'm quite pleased with this one third attempt at Concrete, on the layout now I have painted card, milliput and now polyfiller applied after removing the sleepers and gluing the track down. thanks for the comments, Phil Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
