|
| Hi All, I made some modifications to the Red Caboose that I posted last week ((URL)). I made 3 mods: 1) Added interior. 2) Removable roof. 3) Changed the porch.

Even on a standard dual oval track ((URL) will race each other, although they know the trains are not running equal distances. So we (...) (20 years ago, 21-Jan-05, to lugnet.trains)

| | Re: 12V and 9V on same track footprint
|
| As you say this is hardly possible. We did that in 2001 (www.hot.ee/sonnich/lego/ - under galleries you will find the Baltic Train Event), and found it hard (impossible) with curved rails. We used straight rail for a "border" station between the (...) (22 years ago, 1-Apr-03, to lugnet.trains)

| | Re: Layout Started

| Yesterday worked out to be pretty productive. Made a donation to Home Depot and bought a straight edge for the long plywood rip cuts. Good thing I didn't have to show both sides as a finished edge.

| | Re: Layout Started

| Made a decent dent in the benchwork framing yesterday. Turns out I was short a 2x4 for the narrow connector between the two loops. Since I had done the drywall finishing myself, I went ahead and bolted the framing directly to the wall studs. I went (...) (20 years ago, 23-Jan-05, to lugnet.trains)
