Scale models - Post yours!
valkyriepm posted a topic in Other Hobbies: Games, Simulations, Models & Photography
Hi guys! I'm opening this topic so if there's any scale modeller beside trains we love, can post your models. If there's any existing topic please mods, merge it 😛 Well, to begin, here are the two little guys I wanted to finish so I can work on my mini layout: DC-9-32 Austral LÃneas Aereas - Hasegawa 1/200 F9F-2 Panther Armada Argentina - Hobby Boss 1/72 Martin

Batuwatta station of Sri Lanka Railways, locomotives and railcars from different countries
Railway Berni posted a topic in Worldwide Rail
Batuwatta station of Sri Lanka Railways is located on the busy railway line between Gampaha and Ragama stations. All trains from Colombo to Kandy, Badulla, Vavuniya, Jaffna, Trincomalee and Batticaloa have to pass here. The train density is correspondingly high. This film shows the passenger trains and the single freight train. Sri Lanka Railways still uses Hitachi locomotives and railcars, called there M5 and S8. The station building and especially the trains towards Colombo are illuminated the best in the afternoon sun. -
Hi, I just got myself a 103 series kit from Greenmax. I also got 4 sets of bogies and a set of pantographs, as specified by the manufacturer. Everything went well when I assembled the kit. However, I ran into a problem while trying to attach the bogie to the car itself. There appears to be no way to connect the bogie and the car, and I wasn't able to find answers to my problem online. Attached below are the pictures of the bogie and the car. Thank you for reading this, and any advice or help would be appreciated. This is my first time using a forum, so I apologize for any mistake that o may have made. Cheers, kokutetsu103

Hello everyone! Today marks one of the first days that I've begun work on an actual (hopefully) N-Scale layout! As these first two pictures demonstrate, I finally arranged a deal to get some space for a small layout, which at the moment is 16' × 2' (really only 20", because of the upper shelf support poles.) Eventually, when time, useable space and family permit, I have plans to expand it into a reversed 'F' shape, through the use of additional shelves along a different wall, and a heavy duty wooden center island table left over from some HO-scale projects. The shelving on the rear wall will the be top part of the letter 'F', and will add about 11' by 2' (again, only 20" of that useable). Final dimensions of the center island table TBD. (Possibly 5' × 6'?) I'll try and post the potential track plan(s) later tonight! I am also always open to feedback, so please chime in, it might really help me out! Thanks for your interest! ~Phillip R.

To put it simply, I was in a rush at akihabara today and bought the wrong trainset (mircroace A3584). Is there any shop in tokyo, better yet, Akihabara, that buys back trains from people? Maybe a place where we can sell second hand or unused trains to shops? Flying back to Singapore next week! Thanks in advance! :)
