Hi Paul

 

love those building , i think they came out really nice and the weathering is top notch

 

I really like the paper work on the wall in the machine shop and the grills on the 2nd floor.

 

i am sure you will be adding some roof details as well as that's where the eyes go first

 

great going !!

 

cheers

how may wagons do you think will be on a typical train ??

hi paul

i installed a couple of peco points on my fremo module recently and below are some modifications  i make  on the workbench itself to avoid grief later on...

i think mod 2 and 3 are often overlooked and are extremely important

for a more comprehensive look read - http://vikaschander.com/points-and-tortoises-install/

hi

don' those long points look just beautiful !!! i can already imagine a long freight snaking over those points at 20kmph.....

are those electrofrogs or insulfrogs .......

what parallel track spacings are you using ?

Have spent the day addressing some trackwork problems ....

Have made end protectors........ I can only get two boards up on my workbench at a time ..... damage was done moving them around, so have now made these to prevent further damage ... hopefully!

hi paul

you may like to consider these, very robust, got the ends snagged on 2 or 3 ocassions but no damage caused...

and they totally disappear once ballasted.......

also have a look here ....http://vikaschander.com/track-across-modules/
