In this video we explore the steps in building a single 90 degree crossing in HO scale using a Fast Tracks Diamond Line crossing kit. Diamond Line crossing kits make building an accurate looking and flawlessly performing crossing a snap! Once the most difficult pieces of track work to build, now one of the most easiest.
We provide a lot of detail in this video about working with castings to build trackwork. It's important that the parts are clean and properly prepared before assembly to ensure the best results. As this is a new approach to building trackwork for many, we recommend watching the video in full before starting assembly of your Diamond Line kit. At a little over 30 minutes in length, it will take almost as long to watch the video as it will to assemble the crossing, but there are lots if great tips in the video that will make it worth the time. Enjoy!
