[quote user="BroadwayPhil"]Followed one a bit too closely and forgot that N scale is NOT half HO scale: that 4.4 percent difference matters![/quote] I had this type of senior moments a number of times. Now I try to plan as precise as possible, only to find out that things don´t necessarily work out the way I have planned them. While a large layout may offer sufficient room for corrections, a small layout usually doesn´t. Such is life as a model railroader: I made some minor modifications to my plan - the key one being the addition of a detachable "fiddle yard" used for staging. I also included a couple of uncoupling tracks. If I´d find an easy way to convert the Marklin stuff to MT Z scale couplers, I would not need them, but, alas, there is no easy way! <img src="http://i682.photobucket.com/albums/vv185/SirMadig/Kleine%20Hafenbahn%2013_zpssscrf3it.jpg" alt=" " /> <img src="http://i682.photobucket.com/albums/vv185/SirMadig/Kleine%20Hafenbahn%2014_zpshyswtrst.jpg" alt=" " /> It´s a quiet day today, Ascension Day and Father´s Day, a public holiday, meaning all businesses are closed. Flo, is it OK for me just to finish my [C]? Lunchtime is ahead of us, and Petra´s stewing something smelling awfully nice.
