Good morning ;-) The first pics of my log train are posted in the scratchbuild-forum. Here is the link http://www.the-gauge.com/showthread.php?t=10438 I will post the other pictures of rolling stock in this thread.

Thanks, at the moment, I have troubles with my logloader. The wooden frame is ready and the logcars can be pusehd through the loader over the ramps. Looks very good. The big problem is, to make the winch working and how to get the logs on the hook of loader.

I've changed the layout a little bit to a smaller one, because the first version were to many tracks on this small space. :oops: This will be the right one.

Trackplan for logging layout This will be the trackplan.

That sounds very interesting. So, I will build something too. My target will be a complete logging layout in N-scale with rolling stock and real operations. Today, I've only the climax and cars that I've posted in the scratchbuild-forum. Next to do will be a logloader and some more detail...

Hi, I've scratchbuild the bulbe as a birthday-gift some years ago. The Shay (It's a modell of cn/10, build by Lima) is a bit larger than N-scale. I've created some other layouts in bulbes. Try a look on this side http://www.gerds-modellbahn.de/sonst/sonst.htm In the opposite to me, the bulb...

Pics of cars By thw way. In the same time, I build my 5 logging flatcars and a watercar. The frameworks are old-style tankcars from microtrains. The tanker was modified with wooden decking. The caboose is a microtrain model and will be detailed next time.

Here are the pics of my climax Hello all, some time again, a friend called me a "quick-basher". I don't know why ;) Here is the result of 2 evenings on my workbench (arround 8 huors). Some parts are still missing like steps, figures, firewood, details like chains and other parts. This will...

Hello all, the work is done and I will post some pictures this evening or tomorrow. At the Moment, I'm working on five logging flatcars.

Hi, this post was one of the inspirations I needed to start my work ;) Very nice model. I hope my model can reach your climax after finish.

Hi Neil, the logloader is in Fn3-scale. That represents 3ft gauge in 1:20,3 on 45mm gauge. The loco on left is the big Spectrum-Shay from B-Mann.

Hello all, here are my first ideas to scratchbuild my first loco for logging operations in N-scale. Prototyp will be a class a Climax with boot-typ boiler. For drivemechanisem, I'm using a model of a german roadswitcher from Fleischmann. Yesterday, I've started to cut away the truck mounted...

I'm okay. :) I'm under control...:rolleyes: I can wait...... :oops: No, I can't :cry: :cry: :curse: Very great pics. This are the best one I've seen of this little loco. It was hard to wait 3 month. But now it will be even harder to wait the last weeks until the postman rings on door with...
