Sorry have not replied to this earlier but other things got in the way. The reason for my original question is I was asked to produce something that needs to take up as little space as possible (Scale is not an issue here because using T to represent a 1m NG Z line (fictitonal)) The rolling stock wi...

As I shall be away from a computer for the next week may I take this opportunity to wish every one festive greetings for the coming week regardless of race,religion,etc.

Stupid but simple question
21m motorised chassis what is the minimum radius I can use?
There will be no other rolling stock on the line chassis is in a railbus.

16 or 17% for OO
32.8 British N 1/148
35.5 US or European N 1/160
48.8 Z gauge 1/220


Simple formula Scale is in divide by scale wanted eg 220(Z) ? 450 (T) = .48.8 when printing put 48.8 in print scale change

I am still around but modelling seems to have stopped for now. :? Call me sad and not really giving the hobby/scale a good name but I am going to use a 70mm radius fine track set, my class 67 and 2 hopper wagons and do a simple xmas table decoration. :roll: Shame Alan has no RTR hopper wagons anymore.

Question of reality - How will the hand of god sort out things if you have a problem on those 2 loverly complex spans?

Typical, I go into hospital for a week and come back to pictures like below.

looking good so far

That scenery work looks like a medical emergency about to happen in my case but keep up the good work

Thanks for the link, That covered exactly what I wanted to know even more embarassing it was me discussing it with you back then.

Martin can you show how you sorted the magnets to drive the road vehicles.

looking good

Trying some diorama building plots that fit credit card sized base.

thanks Doug,
Trying some american outline stuff and waiting for my insurance company to sort out my pension so can get some rtr from Alan.
Will try and sort some photos of what I have attempted so far.

Hi everyone,no modelling being done at present.
Have converted some N scale card models down to T and am slowly building them.
Health has been very up and down so take each day as it comes. Lots of shapeways goodies to clean and prime but not rushing.

Sorry I have not replied earlier but have been involved in something not railway related.
Descision has been made to forget the idea and concentrate on other ideas because the model of plane I was looking for is not available.

OK so I have been offered a couple of die cast model aircraft for small regional airlines scale not yet decided but do you think slightly smaller 1/500 models would not look out of place in this instance.
