HOn-1900

[19oo]

Hi,

 

Here's my current project.

 

Localisation - Japan :) (going for a general feel rater that a specific area)

Size - 4x4 foot, ''hidden'' under the coffee table.

Gauge - HOn

Era - 1900 more or less

Max. Radius: 9 inch

Max Elevation: still unknown (due to forest area)

Rest to be done:... to much at the moment (it was started last month)

Missing: Anything related to that era in term of train bridge

Currently doing: Jig for stub switch, jig for hand cart (flat), looking for missing bridge info...

 

Early pictures...

 

Customs made stub switch

 

NB: I will soon add the basic layout plan.

Have a good week-end!

 

What was the draft of the layout:

Interesting.  Is the coffee-table glass-topped, or does the layout pull out, or is it only intended to be viewed at the edges?

 

Do you have rolling stock, or are you going to buy/build that later?

 

Is is planned to be a specific kind of line (e.g., logging railway) or just a rural common carrier?

Hi,

 

Coffe table as a closed top on it wich i am now able to remove :happy3: .

 

At moment rolling stock is only composed:  of 2 motor but  1 loco body (that's half done), 1 passenger coach, 1 boxcar, and some log buggies.

The rest will come this winter, santa clauss is a great guy.

 

Focusing on a carrier run mostly, but i didin't have any specific but as I look to reference material id say around Hakodate (with some out of place buildings)

 

Il post pictures of the layout latter this month with a lot of placeholder for the buildings (current occupation ) on it with some top view.

 

Have a good week!

Looking forward to seeing your progress. I've started planning some H0e myself, and combining it with H0j (Japanese H0 running on 12mm track). So far mainly just attempting to build an H0e steamer brass kit :)
