Free-mo NZ120 attempts to raise-the-bar for NZ120 scale modular railroading by specifying standards for bench work, track and digital control that promotes prototypical appearance and operational characteristics. This document contains standards that must be followed to the letter, and in italics recommendations that are optional.
MODULE:
A new "Book" to document the new module standard being developed by some members has been created under the Documents menu item.
http://www.nz120.org/docs/new-module-standard page
This document (known in this system as a Book) describes the new module standard. The standard is currently being developed so this document is subject to change.
Members of this site can edit this content and add new pages as various parts of the new standard are agreed. Any debate on what those standards should be should occur in the forum discussion here.
The original standard is documented here.
This article describes the original module standards developed for NZ120. These pages are based on those first provided by Rod Murgatroyd and are republished here with his permission.
As far as we are aware only a small number of these modules have been built. If you have any experience with this module system please add a comment to this article, or better yet start a discussion in the Forums about your experiences and any suggestions you have for making the module standard better.
The Module Concept
The NZ120 module standard will allow NZ120 modellers to build one or more modules and to participate in occasional meetings where a number of modules can be joined to create a viable operating layout. The standard ensures that modules will connect and operate successfully.
