Trains of Thought
“Trains Of Thought” is produced in the train room I’ve build in the basement as I spend time messing about with a very English OO model railway here in America. Sometimes I’ll show you how I’ve made something, perhaps other times explain how a I’ve wired something or made a circuit work. Always, I’ll tell you what I think and how it works in real life.
My area of marginal cleverness is with electrical and electronics but I barely know the difference between a “School” and a “Castle”. Lots of fun, and a little serious thinking along the way.
A few layout details...
20 x 9 feet
Double track main line with a complex branch line.
DCC linked to “Train Controller Silver”
Block detection working (but needs a sensible rework)
Two “reversing loops” that function remarkably well.
Too many hidden fiddle yard features.
Era? Almost anything goes. 60’s?
Region? A preference for SR but, anything goes.
