Busch Feldbahn - anyone with practical experience of this?

[ColinK]

That sounds like a good idea.

 

While I’ve had the Busch stuff for quite a while, I’ve only started it as a break from my big layout as I ran out of modelling steam after exhibiting my OO layout at the GCR - it wasn’t the 3 day show that wore me out, but the three months of intensive activity getting the stock ready.

 

I’ll see what I can do about a thread.

 

Thanks for the interest and ideas.

I have modified a Gaugemaster Model W by using a lower voltage AC transformer - the locos run beautifully slowly on this now.

The rails are nickel silver.

I've not got it to hand to measure the size of them.

 Please tell more about the transformer.

 

Thank you

I can’t I’m afraid Tom. It was just a plug in transformer from Amazon or EBay, I chopped off the socket and wired it to the 16v AC feed on the Gaugemaster W.

Just realised that I never posted any pictures of my finished layout, so here it is ...
