Here I want to show you one cool whim: single track route for using with rolling stock in two scales - standard gauge N (1/160) and narrow gauge HOn30 (1/87).

Small Folding Layout For Use in Both HOn30 and N scales

TANO_Whole_Layout_037645851-big-640.jpg


The track plan is designed as single line in “double 8” figure with one small station in front and train stop at the back. The layout is planned to allow exchanging of the buildings, signals and some other parts depending on the current rolling stock scale – N (1/160) or narrow gauge HOn30 (1/87). The guy who builds this layout has prepared different stations and surrounding buildings, different types of signals and different locos and coaches. Only the tracks and the grass will be the same in both scales. Check the link to see more pictures in the two different setups :)

Two new N scale layouts were published in the site from the beginning of the year - see them below:

The Train Layout with The Old Castle

Nice layout with precise designed virtual buildings (all are from real kits) with many details and rich decorations.

A Small Layout in the Kid's Room in N Scale

This project represents a whole room with bed on the upper level and all the furniture for L-shaped layout with buildings and rolling stock on it.

See 3 more layouts in HO (1/87), TT (1/120) and N (1/160) scales, all in oval form:

Compact HO Track Plan feat. Figure "8"

HO_planta_scarm_2D_edited-460.jpg


The plan above has one internal loop with one entry point, but can be easily modified in 2 different ways in order to get one more entry/exit point. The modifications are described in the article.


Compact Oval in TT scale

SCARM_Tillig-BTTB-1a-Compact_Train_Layout-3D_1-460.jpg


This design is just a simple oval with small train station in the center.


THE EYE - 3' x 5' N-scale Layout of Brian

SCARM-THE_EYE-N-scale_Bachmann_layout_1-460.jpg


This is one already build layout for simultaneously running of up to 3 trains

Here is the only SCARM blog post for May:

International Danube Modular Layout Meeting - Russe 2017

P1030392-449x300.jpg


The event hosted layouts in HO, TT and N scales and was carried out by more than 40 participants from several countries. Here is the layout scheme:

HO-TT-plans-288x300.jpg


I also attended and even drove several trains :) See the pictures that I shot in the blog post's gallery.

Last but not least, I should mention that one of the train stations and several other single modules are entirely designed in SCARM ;)
