What did you do on your layout today?

Iron Horse, I like the lift up bridge.  I need to make two lift up bridges for my layout.

Mark,

Thanks.  I 'was looking at your layout under a different post and it looked like you were doing a bridge plan.  Any way I can help, let me know.  Like this new train room, on my old layout I needed a bridge at the entrance and my scratch built wooden one served me well for a number of years.  The keys for me have been to get the pivot point at the exact top of the tracks,  use two heavy duty hinges for strength, and make sure you have an automatic track power kill switch (OGR Backroom has a great column on this) or you will crash your engine(s) when you forget to lower the bridge.  I also put a simple slide lock to lock down the bridge so it never shifted while I ran trains.

I ran some trains this morning with my daughter, she is 11 days old today. Its her first time running trains with me. I think she liked it 😊.

Morning guys, Last post till I get to North Dakota.

EB, Thank you sir. If I come across some great scenery I will do my best to get some photos and post them.

Mark Sorry about your Dremel, but I am glad you are able to fix it. But I am more happy that you got your second 042 switch working and your able to run trains threw it! When I get back to my wife's folks house from Menards I will post photos of all the nice stuff Menards had waiting for me!

Mike, Wonderful job on the lift bridge! I automated mine so I wouldn't have to lift it do the a bum right shoulder!

Jstewart, How wonderful is that! Congratulation! I became a grandpa for the 5th time this last Sunday! They are so great at that age!

Well I hope you all have a great weekend and find time for your trains and layouts! But most of all I hope you all stay safe and have fun!

Time to hit the Road!

I added my latest addition to my collection, the 1997 Lionel U.S. Forest Service log dump car.

Been doing much needed, and put off, under-layout wiring clean-up.  Not my favorite part of the hobby.  But in the meantime, I was able to put this together this building using left-over Ameri-Towne parts and scrap materials.  Named after a friend.

I don't create elaborate, themed layouts for Xmas or Halloween. And I've never been big into Halloween decorating of the house, and yard. However, this year I had been talking with hubby Tom and thinking of us setting up a temporary, small Halloween theme O loop on 2 card tables and plywood on the front porch, where we would sit next to it and pass out candy this Halloween night. But due to Covid, etc. our neighborhood assoc is asking all to cancel trick-or-treating directly and have lights out.

So I decided to create the small layout in the foyer for purely mine and Tom's amusement anyway.

Went today to a Dollar Store, a Dollar General, and Walgreeens to look for some small, not expensive items.  Found some cute little things.

Going to use my prewar Lionel 600 series freight cars, my two modern era Lionel Halloween cars, but undecided on what engine yet. Maybe the MTH AT&SF  + 605 tender that smokes real well. Maybe the grey repainted prewar 249e and matching tender. One freight car, the tipple car will have candy corn in it. Maybe I'll look for black licorice pieces for the hopper.

Will create a Fastrack oval loop of O-36 curves and a couple of straights, that I'll pull off the still being built Upstairs O Gauge Layout. Have a white tablecloth to skirt the card tables, and will add a bit of assorted train ground cover materials.

Here's the start:

Did some snow weathering, LC+ DL&W Hudson 1151 with K-line 15" Heavyweights.

Congratulations on your cute daughter. Maybe a future Engineer of Conductor?

I had been considering getting one of those lionel hot air balloon rides for my layout, but i've been reading about all the problems people were having with them, so I came across decorative hot air balloons which i've wired with flickering LEDs 1 for the burner, 2 on the inside of the balloon to show light cast by the burners.  This one is temporarily suspended off a bridge on my layout since the hill over which i want to put it is under-construction.  I did a video at "train sunset" light levels and at full bright....

WOW! Beautiful early Christmas present.

Scott V great job with the flickering LEDs and the balloon. I may have to try that with the one I have.

After 8 years of being in a box my Shark has seen the light of day again and after a light lube job runs smooth as ever.

Got a little more done on one corner I need more trees

Thank you leapinlarry....much appreciated!

Jstewart.204. Thanks for posting you're  new daughter and you're layout. It brings tears to my eyes as my daughter is now 38 and has three small children.  Time goes so fast. Cherish all those memories you can and take a lot of pictures. The ones on you're layout are super.  She is definitely  a blessing from God. Thanks for the post.

Mike g. Please don't  laugh at me but what do you mean by cooking dirt. I have never heard of this saying or term .

"Cooking dirt" -- unless i'm mistaken, Mike means exactly what he said. A number of us have used real dirt (more accurately sand), stone dust, etc. on our model railroads. When so doing it's advisable to heat in a 250+ degree oven for at least a half hour to kill any living matter in it. But then it's your home and what creatures you want to bring into it.

Get a little pink train hat.  And then take a selfie picture of you and her with that train hat in front of your trains.  My daughter, now 14, has given me crap about the same picture since she was 3 or 4 and I am a proud dad rebuffing her complaints every day. To this date it is my favorite picture.  Enjoy her every day as every dad here can attest!

Having a floor layout makes it hard to hide wiring. I had some really ugly wiring in the front of my switch yard so decided to put up some fencing to see it that would help. Definite improvement.

Did some refurbishment on my ZW R, new cord, repaired the buss bar to the U terminals and a general clean up.  Needs a new roller on the right side throttle pretty badly, so that will be on my next parts order.  Then added a transformer shelf to the layout edge so I could move the ZW back away from the track some.  Next up is to run some wire to a few lights and get them going off one of the inner throttles.  AD

I've been in the mood to do some major work on the layout, but I've been so busy at my job that I haven't had the time (or energy).

I did tune up my MPC era F-units and they're running great. Now if my wife would just give me some more space for the layout...

Cold weather in north Minnesota at 32 degree, grab opportunity worked on ballast at north side of C&NW’s Central Division layout on double main lines. Just applied glue/water on it.

Nothing picture-worthy but I did create some more deep & wide shelves in my workshop to store a few more engine/sets.  Also unpacked the rest of my boxes

of train stuff,  fun to rediscover what you have !  Off work Monday so I will squeeze in some more train time !

Replaced the fisheye portholes windows on my one-off Gulf, Mobile & Ohio PW F-3A unit with P&D Hobby O scale units previously painted by Christine Braden to dolor match the red stripe.  Doing so required the holes to be enlarged 2mm or so--a very risky undertaking for my hands of stone. 

Also replaced the P&D Hobby O scale portholes I'd previously installed with silver edges with red ones painted by Christine on the companion F-3B unit.

Comparison photos to follow.

Shooting more video...

Christmas is coming early this year, my son is graduating from Nuclear Command Power Training School in three weeks. I will only have a few days with him before he ships out to a Aircraft Carrier or Submarine for the next four years. Given my current medical condition, I don't know when I will be able to do this again.

First picture is Pocono 1643 waiting for the signal to go green, going to pass a closed Jim's train shop with a big gone fishing sign.

Second picture is Hudson 1151 taking on water at East Stroudsburg.

Third picture is Hudson 1151 about to climb the Pocono Mountain just after passing Analomink, Pa.

1643 is still waiting for the green.

Pete, all the photographs are looking great!!

Congratulations to your son, and I thank him for committing to serve our country for so long!!!!  I hope you have a great visit with him and he is kept from harms way the next 4 years!

Western Auto trailers.

Great work everyone!

Lee wonderful video and Pete great photos! Please let your son know we thank him for his service and for you bringing him up to respect his country!

Well I made it to Menards today and will post photos in what did you buy lately. Was a good trip and the CEO got some things for the layout also!

I hope everyone is doing well and having fun!

Mike, I thought of you this morning and said a prayer for your safety on your trip!  It sounds like you did well at Menards!  I'll look forward to seeing what you got when you return home.

Thanks Mark, we had a safe but slippery drive here. I sure hope it's a safe drive home! I posted photos of my haul from Menards on another thread, buy anything cool lately!

Shared time with my grandson and our wonderful hobby.....

Added a slow red, LED flasher from Evan Designs to the top of my Lionel Sand Tower. Drilled a hole through the top of the Sand Tower about the diameter of the lens, but less than the lip of the lens. Put a little CA glue around the lip and pushed it up into the hole from the bottom and applied some accelerator to secure it in place.

Ran the wires down the back of the far leg so they don't show and secured them to the leg with CA glue and accelerator. I had pre-drilled a hole in the layout to run the wires through and did that before pushing the 4 legs securely into the foam. (Note: this Lionel Sand Tower comes from the factory with the 4 legs attached to a flat metal base so you can just place it on the layout and run track on top of the metal base and through the tower. Since my whisker tracks were already laid and ballasted, I couldn't do that, so I carefully removed the legs from the metal base and spaced them out evenly from the sides of the track.)

The flasher has a built-in resistor in the wires so it can run off 10-19 AC volts, which is convenient, so I just hooked it up to my 18acv track power distribution board and it starts working as soon as I apply track power.

One other note - the flasher flashes red, but the lens is clear. I wanted the lens to be red so it would show up even while off and painted it prior to installation with Tamiya Clear Red, so the lens appears red when off, but is "translucent" enough so it does not substantially diminish the brightness of the LED light.

Working on a petite Halloween theme layout, just 4ft x 6 ft. Today I found some orange sheer, sparkle fabric for cheap at Walmart  to cover the bare plywood. I love this look! Very uh, Ginger Rogers! Sparkle is my Superpower Bits and bobs seen on the table have been procured from Dollar General, the Dollar Store and Walgreens. The large wooden sign came form Michaels. Going to run this repro Std Gauge small set, and and an O train too. Ordered a loop of Std. Gauge track from USA Track, it already on its way. The O loop will be tubular. A few Lemax and Dept 56 items are on their way to flesh out the layout.

Looking good Carey! Good thing you aren't going overboard 😂😂😂

Resumed sanding the two LIONEL offset 15" aluminum domes for my NP NCL project that I'd previously painted, but decided they needed a "do over."  Will apply another primer coat and hope that's all the surface prep necessary for smooth sides and roofs.

Sent two more domes off to Christine Braden for her to paint to match.

Ran the westbound Lake Shore Limited...

Nice scenario and how is the on time performance for that train?

Also, your backdrop is very impressive. How was that done?

Jay

Working on getting the backdrop up, starting to look good to me.

Gone fishing

Mike g, finally a trip to Menards. Nice purchases. They'll look good on your layout.

Bob, your corner came out great.

Johan, great pics.

Mark, you are doing good work on your layout.

Thought I posted this but guess I didn't. A few days ago I got these 1955 Ford box trucks from Die Cast for a decent price. I decided to get away from buying and start back to doing something on the layout. I have had my Kozak Machine shop sitting on the dryer for sometime so I decided to work on finishing it. I painted the edge of the Masonite with Earth color. Took mesh drywall tape and put it down around the building. Mixed up some plaster with color and applied it to the base around the building. If that looks okay I will add ground foam around the building. Pics............Paul 2

Thanks Paul. The building looks good. Nice to see the basement layout again, it's been a while.

Bob

Thank you, Paul!  Nice group of trucks and the building is looking very good!!

I sure hope everyone is doing well, Just wanted to check in and see all the wonderful work! I am glad I went to Menards already a they are calling for 8" of snow tonight. I am so ready to get back to the warm wet weather of home! LOL

Paul, your building is looking outstanding! Was the base already on there or did you scratch build it? Either way it looks great!

I cant wait to get home to get back to work on the layout with all the new stuff I got, but first I have to finish the scenery behind the city area!

Everyone please be safe and have fun with your layout and trains!

Today I bought more of the sheer sparkle fabric At Walmart to cover the bare plywood on my petite Halloween layout. Hubby Tom said he wanted to keep it up for Autumn too after Halloween, so I bought a layer of gold sparkle to go over the orange for then. Also bought sparkle green for changing it for Christmas time.

You mean the "Late for Sure Limited" ? late as usual. The back drop was made with cloud pattern wallpaper and mountain backdrops from Scenic Express. Thanks for asking!

@Dennis S: that is a great looking backdrop! Is it custom or off the shelf? I'm going to be needing backdrop soon...

Finally finished wiring my layout expansion up after the tracks were silent for a week and a half or so. Got to finally sit back and enjoy running some trains! This is my favorite spot on the layout!

Ran all the trains today

My friend  Steve finished  tweaking the small dam. We installed it yesterday and now we're  ready to start the river . The dam swings out of the way and the river hinges down for access  to my camping area and other bridges.

Grandkids came in for a visit for a long weekend. Managed to successfully land the shuttle on on a Lionel trestle and even missed the parked vehicles!

A little of both. It's cloud pattern wallpaper and mountain scenes from Scenic Express.

Picked up an MTH Bump-N-Go shell from a Forum member a few weeks back.  Finally got around to putting it on a chassis:

Naturally, Norma Bates Kitteh got into the action:

I am mulling over reworking the RTC, replacing the grass mat with a layer of Homasote and revising the track plan with a switched oval in the center...

Mitch

Early this morning the Bald Rock Mountain RR dispatched a train to Springville Flats to clean up after the Cicada's attacked.  The Cicada remains were loaded into a gondola and shipped to the county landfill.  Reconstruction of the switch tower is now underway.

Bill, I can see why it would take a crane to lift those buggers!!!  I'm glad the National Guard got all of them!

It's done, just waiting for my son to come home.  He has one oral board exam left to take on Monday morning. He got his orders for the next four years, Submarine out of Bangor, Washington. I have him for Thanksgiving and will get to spend his 23rd birthday with him.

Yes the trolley is fast, I only have two transformers. So the trolley is sharing with the LC+ Hudson and 5 passenger cars.

DLWPete: Thanks for the cheerful post. It's what we all need these days!

Pete, you must be extremely proud of you son being picked for submarine duty. I wish him well and thank him for serving.

A trip to Home Depot: picked up the full size birch plywood for the Halloween Layout. looks good! Got crown moulding and spray paint for building the deco style “Park-In Theater”.

Picked up this Lionel Z transformer and brought it up to date with a new electric cord and face plate, then added an on/off switch, push button directional switches for each circuit, and 2 new circuit breakers. Wish I had room inside for whistle controllers!

DL&W Pete :  Great post and video, really loved the structures you have placed on the layout.  Please tell your son, "Thanks for his service".  Submarine service is one of the top duties in the Navy and I am sure you are justifiably proud of him.  Let him know that we all wish him..."Fair winds and following seas".

Don

Needed an air freshener, Mega steam Peppermint Patty.

Thank you all for the well wishes for my son. Yes, I am very proud of him for accomplishing this. My health issues and situation didn't help, but I kept after him to keep his thoughts on his future. I have lived my life even though I am only 51. The human body does what it wants, I can't control it but have to live with it. Again,  thank you for the well wishes. I will be sure to pass them along to him.

Due to the lack of nice inexpensive yard lights decided to design and build my own. Single, Dual, straight and angled, cool and warm, I think that might cover it for now.

Looking forward to seeing these installed. 30 years ago I bought metal tubing, grain of wheat bulbs and cut up a soda can for shades. Made 20 of them, I still have them for HO. Our street lights are now all L.E.D, you need sunglasses at night now.

Ray, very innovative and I think you have a product line. Any ideas for 50’s era lights?

Great job,

Jay

Agreed, sometimes way too bright which is why I angled them down to 30 degrees and In some cases I've used I think it's transparent orange to paint the LEDs, it does work somewhat.  I had made some of a different  style before and like you said sunglasses so I tried to make shades which came out ok but looked a little weird. I think I'm going to like these but we will see.

THanks Jay, I haven't looked into the 50's but we might take a look, I now have to replace or add a lot of these to the layout. I'm using Evan Designs LEDs which I've had such good luck with and his 12V regulated power supplies.

John, The dam look great! I cant wait to see the river below it!

Bill, I am glad the crew was able to get the Cicada's cleaned up! Nasty little critters to be on a layout!

DLWPete, wonderful video's. I am glad your able to spend time with your son before he ships out! If he gets the urge to see some trains let me know I am really not that far from there for around here. Maybe an hour. Thank him again for his service!

Ray, outstanding work! I wish I had your skills and a 3D printer!

Well guys and gals, I made it back from North Dakota after a long drive and a night in Missoula Montana with 14 inches of snow and an hour or so drive over the pass at 40 miles an hour! What a pain! I hope to get out to the train room today as yesterday I only went in there to put all my Menards stuff in there. I got lucky while at my in-laws as my father in law gave me about 10 or so wonderful looking autos that will look perfect on the layout. If I make it out there I will try and post photos later.

I hope you all have a great weekend and find time to have fun with your layout and trains!

Good morning everyone! This weekend I was able to run my MTH PS2 2-10-4, with 48 coal hoppers, on my boss' layout. Thanks for watching/reading and happy railroading!

Finished working on a fir tree for my layout. It is about 13 inches tall - so about 52 scale feet.  For a first attempt - it looks pretty good - IMO. Looking at the photo, next time I will taper the truck more at the top 1/3 of the tree. Now all I have to figure out is how to make some pine cones!

very nice!

Well I didnt get anytime out in the train room today, but I did take a few photos of the cars my father in law gave me along with the church my mother in law gave me for the layout. I also have a few photos from our little trip to share.

Trainmaster,I am with Ray, WOW what a long train. But I have to say I really love both BNSF Trains!

Gandydancer, Very cool!

Scoutingdad, Very nice work! Really brings out the beauty of the BNSF engine!

Here are the photos! first up the autos. I hope you all enjoy

I hope to have more photos of layout work tomorrow. I hope you all had fun today!

Mike, I'm glad you got back safely!!  Those are nice cars!  Nice photographs of your favorite railroad.

Thanks Mark, the only other railroad we seen along the way was Montana Rail Link, but could never get a photo of it as i was always driving. Passed a couple siding yards but hard to take photos at 80 mph! lol

All,

I  finished  the motor car shed and placed it on the layout at the yard limit sign. The motor car was one I bought from the C&O Historical  Society this summer. The motor car looked like it was laser printed and non functional and needed painted. My work is not as good as the great scenery I’ve witnessed on this forum, but I have fun. The shed is built from mini popsicle sticks from Hobby Lobby .

The shed looks great.

Yes, it does! If I remember correctly that was on 18 volts of power going down the straight, which is roughly 36' long.

Today I worked on two things, first with my dd in Oregon via pics and texts to create a little “fill” scene on my Petite Std. & O Halloween Layout. The area with the autos, particularly in front of them. The space gained ground cover, a parking lot, a pumpkin patch with headstones, kid peeps, and a spooky tree at the front edge. The “Park-In” Theater for this layout was also being worked on today too, albeit separately.  

Had time this weekend to finish wiring track power bus and blocks, before sub-roadbed is installed.  I'm wiring for conventional cab-control with block selectors.  It's a semi-portable layout with 3 sections, so I've avoided star wiring to minimize section jumpers.  Thanks to everyone on the forum for all the great ideas.

I added under layout lighting.  Super bright LED "commercial" Christmas light sets my daughter and I picked up at Home Depot right after Christmas last year for 50% off.  They actually seem to do the trick.  Not sure how their long term performance will be but attached them with Velcro strips from Menards -- so they are easily replaceable -- could add another type of light strip if these don't work out.

I finally finished my first Halloween layout this weekend. Right now, it's a standalone deal, but my original thought was to eventually integrate it into my Christmas layout, as a kind of double-decker type thing. I'd still like to do that some day, but kept things pretty simple this time just to get it going. I built the 4x8 table to accommodate being mounted on two saw horses, and it's split down the middle for easier transport and storage. I enjoyed the project, but I can't see setting it up the same way again in the future. Getting tired of the loop!

The “Park-In” Theater for my Petite Std. & O Halloween Layout is almost done. Lots of coats of primer and chrome and black paint were done today, and the four feet were cut. More painting and glueing in the am- so it will be completely done and on the layout very soon. This is 18 in tall, or 36 ft in Standard Gauge train scale.

How very Art Deco-ish!!! Looks great, but for Halloween, you really need to be showing a Boris Karloff, Bela Lugosi, or Lon Chaney flick

How fast is that thing going? I think mine is moving pretty good at 50 scale MPH.

Since the video I painted the smokebox front "tarpon gray". Looks much better.

Still sticking individual cedar shingles on this watermill roof...boring!  But the end is in sight!

I really don't know what the scale mph. Due to I was running the locomotive in conventional. With that said, I would say she was going over 100 mph since the train next to it was going about 75 to 80 mph.

Ran trains for a while yesterday. I unpacked my NYC Sharks that I bought recently on the Forum. Had a New York State of Mind running session.

These are Williams engines, I need to re-wire the powered A unit motors in series. They are jack rabbits in parallel, even at 6V.

Thanks Paul- I was thinking more Billy Joel but....figured you would zing me for not having the D&H Sharks on the layout yet......

They are next

Bob

Got the inspiration for doing this from another thread and am pleased with the results. Removed the MTH open pilot and front coupler from my E6 and installed a Lionel closed pilot with a home made adapter plate. Took a few tries to get close enough on the home color mix for me to be satisfied but I like the end result.

Stay Safe,
