stevenh Posted April 14, 2011 Share Posted April 14, 2011 Love it! You just need a larger yard to be able to add a little shunting maneuver or two. Link to comment
Samurai_Chris Posted April 14, 2011 Author Share Posted April 14, 2011 Hi, thanks.. Actually it is just designed to hold a spare set on one track, and the cleaning car and loco on the other. Well, that's the idea. The station there will be a small local one based on the one near my house, so didn't to want to much going on... Chris Link to comment
Samurai_Chris Posted April 15, 2011 Author Share Posted April 15, 2011 Well, I just constructed a test track upstairs to make sure that all my measurements were in order and the only thing I had to change, was the S140 section at the bottom of the Kokura Castle corner was replaces with a S280. And I then added another S280 to the Sasaguri strait to compensate. However, an S140 will be needed at the left side of my Iizuka bridge, and instead of C280 corners after the bridge going to Sasaguri. C317's replaced that section to make it all line up the way I wanted it.. Now I have to work, the larger and smaller scales for the outside track... Chris Link to comment
Samurai_Chris Posted April 15, 2011 Author Share Posted April 15, 2011 The kids wanted to see how the Shinkansens would take to the track.. My Tomix N700-8000 took it like a champ on mid speed. But the Kato Series 800 just came off up on the top loop. Didn&t like it at all... Chris Link to comment
