Jack_Dunboyne Posted June 22, 2014 Posted June 22, 2014 I finally found some time to start my modular project (thanks Filip for a help ). First stage - 3 boxes 80x40 cm with small station on it. Plan: Boxes are ready New photos later today. Quote
murrayec Posted June 22, 2014 Posted June 22, 2014 Hi Jack Looking great there, your on the way. Just on the point of Modular Railway Layouts;- Have you considered the specification for Modular Systems posted in a thread in this forum area? The reason I ask is that we are trying to establish a standard that if modellers adherer to there should be no integration problems when separate layouts come together! murrayec Quote
Jack_Dunboyne Posted June 22, 2014 Author Posted June 22, 2014 Are you agreed on transition boxes ? There is a lot of different ideas in the modular layout topic. Do we have any summary what a standard should be? Quote
murrayec Posted June 24, 2014 Posted June 24, 2014 (edited) Hi Jack The modular layout thread drawing has stayed the same since the start, there has been minor upgrades and additions to the drawing like- addition of sky board, addition of board display lights, etc; The current drawing is at the following link (drawing without display lights);- http://irishrailwaymodeller.com/showthread.php/2465-Modular-OO-Layouts?p=37869&viewfull=1#post37869 The depth of the board- front to back is now 600mm and not 610mm I will prepare a complete drawing in pdf format with the display lights and post it up murrayec Edited June 24, 2014 by murrayec Quote
Jack_Dunboyne Posted June 24, 2014 Author Posted June 24, 2014 I will work on transition box later Hopefully, it would be ready for track till the end of the week. Quote
