Christmas in February! Who knew?

Very cool keep the pix coming!

Welcome back to the hobby! Here is a website I found with some really good ideas: http://www.thortrains.net/npoora.html I'm in the same boat only have enough room for a switching layout, can't wait to get started! Post what you come up with!

Sorry to say that I've had to take the layout down. wall1 As we are renting the house we are in and they need to work in the basement right where the layout is. Figure! I did save the roundhouse portion and will work on it then I have time. Oh well on to planning the next one. I have all Kato...

Mike, Sorry to report that I have had to dismantle my layout...The house we are renting is getting work done in the basement and my layout was in the way so I'll be packing the rest of it tonight and tomorrow. Oh well! I guess I should wait until we settle in our own place again before I start...

Looks great so far! Really like the trailer park. Every layout needs a trailer park near the tracks! Are the bowling ally and taco joint store bought or did you kitbash them? Either way they look great!

Great work once again! Excellent details! The flat background blends in so well behind the ball field, the 3d effect really pops out. In the second picture there seems to be a turnout by the orange truck in the center of the picture. Is that the track that the trains can reverse direction...

Very cool and interesting in my book!

I try!

Gary, I found this on another website. Hope it helps, Märklin-C series HO gauge track is designed specifically for AC powered, effectively three-rail Märklin layouts. The C-series track has integral ballast and is slated to replace the older M-series track. It is only compatible with...

More Progress I was able to get a bit more completed on the roundhouse. One side is complete and the window glazing has been done. I used Testor's liquid window glazing which I didn't know they made. It worked very well even when I had to brush it on the vertical windows. Any comments welcome!

I received the parts from Walthers today. I didn't know they stocked parts. My kitbash is complete. Thanks Walthers!

Yes I have done that all ready and actually they were most helpful. I don't know if they have the parts yet but we'll see.

And yet another great scene! Very cool

I have a bunch of Walthers 933-3202 Union City Roundhouse used structures that I am using to build a custom structure, See www.trainiac77.com for the latest pictures, but I've run into a snag. :cry: There are some windows that separate the top part of the roof from first sections. I am missing a...

Sounds like the wires going to the motor are disconnected. Perhaps you should start there?

OK it's been a while but I'm finally making some progress. The roundhouse is going to be a very long project as I have to shape each roof piece individually as I originally changed the angle of the floor pieces. A lot of work, but I'm enjoying it! The outside and inside roof sections will be...

The whole scene looks awesome! The sandy bottom river really complements the farm. Once again great work!

Have you looked into doll house hardware? ( I built both daughters doll houses many years ago!) I know the local craft store sells a variety of tiny hidges that can be painted black, just a thought...

Looking Good Mike!
