    Poles to hang traction overhead.

    Thanks Chris and Val for a very well put together "how to" I grew up with trams and trolley buses and always thought it would be neat to model a tram diorama and this article on pole making would be a big help.

    Transformer for Digitrax

    Do you have an old DC power supply? I use my old MRC Control Master 20 and it has done the job for me as well as supplying lighting for my buildings. A good old workhorse.

    The M.A.T. goes mushroom
