Help on a switching layout
Posted by Anonymous on Tuesday, July 22, 2003 2:13 AM
I'm adding a decent sized switching layout to my current layout and wanted to know if anyone out there would mind taking a look at it and telling me what you think. I.E. any problems you might see. Some background, I'm working in o-scale three rail equipment. THe electro couplers allow uncoupling anywhere and i wanted to shuffle around about 10 cars to five different locations. I'm really working toward as much scale fidelity as possible even with the third rail. Most of the O people i talk to want to run toy trains, and are of no help here. I can scan in my layout and send it to whoever wants to help. Thanks, Happy Bill
