Clayton Posted January 13, 2021 Author Share Posted January 13, 2021 Well, since I received notification that my tracks has made it stateside and on its way. I did revise the siding for the Station and warehouse in the upper right of the photo. Since I didn't order any extra tracks. I just swapped some around. I wanted the warehouse closer to my town area. Just trying to make it look more symmetrical and realistic. 3 Link to comment

Clayton Posted November 23, 2021 Author Share Posted November 23, 2021 Hello everyone! Sorry I didn’t fully forget about you. I have been very busy on my layout since my last post. Here’s some up to date photos that I took earlier today and yesterday. A big difference from the beginning. Will be posting more photos after this post. 4 Link to comment

I took it upon myself to make an oval to "test" out some of my new locomotives. Here is a video of me testing one of my intermountain SD40-2's under DC not DCC. I did find that it worked great by running it between 40-70 on my MRC 1500 controller. You will need the volume up on this.https://www.instagram.com/p/CGGgRWinOP5/ hi Clayton. what sound decoder are you running in the loco? 1 Link to comment
Clayton Posted November 23, 2021 Author Share Posted November 23, 2021 (edited) Today I received the stickers for the road crossing. The last photo is my F7’s in action. Yes, all of the F7’s are powered. I don’t have any non DCC or dummy locomotives in my collection. Running DCC has made running my layout easier than DC. I have my Digitrax DCS52 as the power supply. I don’t use the throttle on the DCS52 for normal operations. I have the Digitrax LNWI loconet, controlling the trains by using my phone through the WiThrottle app. I only use the throttle on the DCS52 whenever I am cleaning the wheels on my test track. Which is an old Kato straight track piece with an short piece that’s soldered to the attached wires. I also use the DCS52 for setting up the locomotives and resetting the decoders if needed and other DCC functions. Edited November 23, 2021 by Clayton 5 Link to comment

Hello beak boy, Right now I have sound decoders in my two BLI and four Intermountain SD40-2’s they are stock ESU’s for the Intermountain and paragon 4 for the BLI locomotives. I also have one in my Atlas locomotives also, it’s a Digitrax. The rest are DCC only. 1 Link to comment

Clayton Posted November 26, 2022 Author Share Posted November 26, 2022 (edited) Here’s some more updates on my layout. I added Christine the car from the Steven King book and the movie. There’s two different ones. The completed version and the scorched one . The later has lights added to her and I placed her in the alleyway as she is planning her next attack. Yes, it’s a model of the 1958 Plymouth Fury Edited November 26, 2022 by Clayton 4 Link to comment
