    i have a similar off stage industry on Franklin falls, Hoffman building supplies, which has 4 spots, spot 1 boxcar-bagged cement/timber, spot 2,PS2 hopper-sand, spot 3 open hopper -stone and spot 4 gondola/flat steel loads, can take some switching, as everything must go in the right order.

    Thanks Nick, will look into this, but another problem has cropped up, metal wheels and magnets, time for a rethink and plan B!!!

    After reading this thread, i went searching for my Roco Kof lll, it's an early DC model, my question is does any one know the part number for the NEM socket or suitable replacement, both mine have lost the plastic arms and won't re-centre, thinking of going down the Kadee route for coupling

    Sadly my layouts (American HO) fall in the category of "noses up in the air brigade" which use to bother me, but not now, so to save them time at exhibition i've had a sign made to display on top of the layout, just wondering weather to add flashing light!!

    good luck hope it works, let us know how it works out, those replacement wheels from Mech's, are better than stock Athearn, there nickel plated.

    looks like cracked gears is your problem, clicking is the classic give away, you need replacement gears or try super glue and baking soda!

    think it's £10.00

    Looks ok, if you change the right hand switch at the end of the run round to left hand, this would give you a unloading pad/team track at the end of the bottom track to unload bulkheads/centre beams from either side, you could use the top left track for tank car loading/unloading

    would suggest using a small diamond crossing, instead of switch back spur

    small American HO layout!!!!!

    made a start on the buildings, using plasticard, then cover with brick paper.
