Viaduct Station and add on

[Paul]

I was thinking of purchasing the viaduct station. My question is will the platform (set 23-160) be compatible with the V15 and viaduct station (set 23-125)?

 

[Tuga]

Yes. I have the V15 set in my layout.

 

Not sure about using the 23-160 platform set, I'm using the 23-109 set instead.

Check this link, it might help you decide what to choose.

Nice set and thanks for the info. I did check that site out already but still not clear if the 23-160 will fit with the others. I'm assuming it will but for the money and time to get here I want to be really sure.

Nice Midland Pullman you have there 😁

@Tuga It seems you did not use easement curves?

The elevated track that I use is the Kato 20-840. No banked curves, so no need for easement curves.

Aha, very cool, I should get me some of those sometime.

Sadly I think the old non banked double viaduct curves are now oop.

You are right Jeff.

Keep an eye on ebay auctions, once in a while a set appears for sale.

I actually have a number of sets from great ebay deals way back. Got 3 loops from a guy who setup a bunch of loops at the chicago toy fair like 20 years back with Kato! Few more curves later in a big box of misc Unitrak I got for a steal. Lost one set to the club layout.

I wouldn't say you "Lost one set to the club layout." 

It's more that you "Kindly supplied one of your sets to a good cause". 😇

[cteno4]

Ha yes. Our first club build on the fly layouts were done using that big pile of double viaduct. Our first nailed down sectional layout then used it and I sold it to the club. When we retired the sectional it was bought by a club member so the track lives on in a new home.

 

lost was I let it go to the clubs before the old flat curves went oop! Not been a huge fan of the super elevated.
