Bronx terminal: the start of Fast Tracks
Posted by Blind Bruce on Friday, June 1, 2012 9:27 AM

On the advice of my local hobby shop, I googled "bronx terminal model railroad" and I was very impressed. If you haven't seen this amazing piece of trackwork, please check it out.

I agree.  The Bronx Terminal is a transportable display that Tim Warris sometimes takes to train shows.  I've had the pleasure to see it a couple of times.  Even the fascia is a work of art.

It takes an iron man to play with a toy iron horse.

I saw it for the first time at the Ottawa train show last month and it's every bit as impressive live as it is in pictures or videos, perhaps more. Tim Warris is a talented and meticulous craftsman and his company is an absolute pleasure to deal with.

Fast Tracks is not only a marvelous company to deal with, but their professional website is loaded with interesting videos that are well worth a look.  For anyone interested in building your own turnouts it isn't as difficult as one might think, and Fast Track turnouts are rock solid.  This is one great company and no I'm not affiliated with Fast Tracks in any way shape or fashion---I'm just so impressed with them and their product that I like to pass on my recommendation.
