  1. Nice photo of Cahersiveen station yard.

    Not much happening at the moment. I'm busy with other things. I've installed some Ip Digital switch machines on the fiddle yard. Still have about seven to go. I did however make up a Modelux Victorian Warehouse. Still not sure where to put it though ?
  3. I have used both underlay and cork on my layouts. I think I prefer cork. You can buy 3mm cork on pre cut rolls or sheets & cut it into trackbed strips yourself. I stick the cork to the baseboard with PVA & stick the track on top using copydex. Use track pins to hold the track lightly in place until the adhesive goes off. Then remove the track pins as the copydex will hold the track in place.
  4. Can I ask what size is the brass tubing & rod you used ? Thank you. Tony.

    Fiddle yard points all wired up ready for fitting. One has been fitted. Only 13 more to go

    Fiddle yard is now wired up & tested. Next job is to prepare Ip Digital point motors before installing them so updates may not happen for a while. There's a total of 38 point motors on the layout I usually wire & setup the point motors before I install them on the layout. Makes it much easier to wire them into the system. If anyone is interested in how I prepare them let me know & I will post pictures or maybe even make some sort of video, although I can promise it won't win any academy awards I will try though. Here are photos of the fiddle yard wired up. I have wired it on the baseboard top surface as it's easier than trying to fiddle about under the layout.
  8. That's a fine show. I was there some years ago. If I remember correctly David Lane was running the show at the time ?

    Yes I got this one from Model Rail. It has a Loksound 5 micro decoder with upgraded speaker & a small stay alive fitted.

    First loco test & a little shunting. VID_20241204_181643.mp4 VID_20241209_112640.mp4 Fiddle yard track is down but needs to be wired up.

    I can understand that. I'm fortunate that there is only two of us in the house now so the space is available.

    Now there's an idea although I think I'd need planning permission

    Not set in any particular area or time frame. It's a bit of a rule one layout. Any big four British steam or early diesel, even pre grouping but nothing modern I have another larger layout as well but I wanted to do something new & different. I've never built an end to end layout before. It's more about the building rather than operating with me. I'll put up more photos as I go along. If anyone has any questions just ask away Tony.

    Progress continues. Scenic side track plan complete. Track has been connected & tested. Point motors are a mixture of Tortoise, MTB Mp4's & Ip Digital's. I used a Roco 108836 accessory decoder for the Tortoise & MTB point motors. The Ip Digital have built in accessory decoders. The command station in a Roco Z21. Next up is track laying in the fiddle yard. Tony.
  15. Look at who's selling it
