PECO announces its entry into the TT gauge market
Golden Fleece 30 replied to whart57's topic in Peco
I have NEVER criticised getting the scale right, I am against all those who criticise people for doing something they enjoy themselves and NOT what the others want. It seems to many people are self centred and want everyone to do things THEIR way. It is the same with some 3mm society members, they cannot accept we all have our own likes and dislikes. Just because I like Tri-ang I do not criticise scale modellers so WHY do they criticise me, thats the issue. -

Who else? Please do not include Gaugemaster as their TT items are rebranded foreign ones already available and have been for a long time. -

Firstly, you dont seem to know too much about the Tri-ang model stating "stupidly small driving wheels", they are 18mm in dia which equates to 6' which is very close to a Brits. Secondly why do you criticise what many people enjoy? Why should we all have to have models that you like the look of? I have many, many models of which many people have seen and not one mentions the "narrow" track they all appreciate the models for what they are and if you cannot do that then I feel sorry for your narrow mindedness. Get a life and understand we are all different and have different ideas and do things differently. There are too many people ready to complain about others but not show their own, where are your TT models? -

In what way? I have many, and I mean many, models with Tri-ang TT chassis's which I would not have if they were no good. -

Another fine RTR loco from Lincoln Loco works, this time a class 52 Western. As usual central motor, 8 wheel drive and pick-ups, and no tyres.

Keith, A very small amount of plastic removed from the inside of the check rail, then, because the check rail looks thinner than the H0m I removed a little on the inside of the metal check rail at the frog. Plus, a slight amount removed in the gap where the two running rails converge in front of the frog. -

No metal ones as I don't have plastic wheels on my layout, apart from odd tenders and bogie ones waiting to get changed. These two coaches, loco and tender have all their original Tri-ang wheels but they are not all free running on their axles but still go through the point. No doubt removing them to clean and oil so the run as they were intended would help them. -

21 long, just under 2 wide and spaced with a 4mm gap. -

A slight point mod similar to my H0m ones but Tri-ang seem to run okay with it. The class 20 has a continental chassis and still runs through after the mod. Garry -

York model shop has all the items, I just wanted the track though for testing but they had the buildings and platforms as well as the flexitrack. -

Thanks to Michael Bassett at Monk Bar model shop informing me they now had the TT 120 items in stock, I now have track and a point for test purposes later tonight. Looking at the point I am very dubious I can get a Tri-ang loco through it.
