a couple of progress shots showing the space reserved for the Trackgang Extended layout on the Mezzanine floor of our large packing shed. Excuse the messy wiring overhead for lights. Our favourite electrician is still to be invited up to fix this issue as well as add another couple of sets of flourescents and a couple more power points. My NZ120…[Read more]

The Trackgang Layout is making an appearance at the annual Tauranga Model Railway Club Show this year. Yours truly in charge while Russell networks in the mornings and goes to work in the afternoons.Well! Thats what he tells me!

Nice work Grahame.

theres a host of Japanese wagons I have picked up over the years in N scale. They have a dble bogie version of the WaMu 80000 as well. Hobby Search have them in stock for reasonable money https://vayashis11.com/vayashis11/jr_pepacra/page-17978/ They have a white version and blue version of the WaMu 80000 .Blue wagons in Farish boxes as I purchased unboxed.

I have issues with mould in my shed as well. Can usually smell it during the winter when you walk in and it coats the MDF in a white mould. Have wiped the sheets down in the summer and it seems to help, but I will be using hardboard as back drop material as I got free supplies of it prepainted.

Fences installed on Layout.Lots more to do. I have placed the 3D lighted house from Stu here and the Resin block house is going somewhere else.

An update for those not on facebook site. more fencing soldered up as well as a couple of gates.These will be re done with finer wire at some stage. Sheep painting with wire support for installing in paddocks. First 3D house all wired up.window glass and curtains to come.Thanks to Coasterboy for the 3D house

lovely job with the way the modules fit together and the scenery looks great!

That will be interesting to see when wagons arrive. How much were the wagons each Lewis,without the horrible freight?

Nice work Stu
