Large / Narrow Gauge
October 18, 2016, 07:38:17 AM
Been working on some 1/25 scale model cars and a new diorama idea came to mind but it involves using narrow gauge engine and I was wondering for true narrow gauge trains is there narrow gauge track? Like 3ft. Gauge compared to standard gauge trains? And if there is would I have to make it or could I get the track and locomotive from somewhere?

On30 / Space/layout issues
June 15, 2016, 10:56:43 PM
I'm looking to build a... well really small layout I'm lucky to have about a foot by 4 feet of space but at the age of seventeen working at Taco Bell I would like to make a small budget layout I could possibly expand overtime so with this in mind I'm exploring several scales I'm a big detail freak building model cars as well as mine shafts and densely wooded areas not looking for realism but am looking for something interesting for people tonlook at. And I'm having problems making a layout design so am reaching out and asking for help from expert modelers on this forum. Thank you for your time

Large / Tracks to the trenches
May 03, 2016, 12:20:25 PM
I'm currently wanting to model trains and rolling stock from ww1 I want to do the Tracks to trenches railway but I'm having problems it's 2 ft. Gauge and I want to model in in Large scale so my question is would Ho scale track count as 2 ft. Gauge and I could use On30 rolling stock as a base for my rolling stock or would the track width be wider or smaller than that in 2ft. Gauge?

HO / USRA 0-6-0 front coupling
April 20, 2016, 04:59:32 PM
With my situation the way it is I have to buy a new train set and I am looking towards the Pacific Flyer train set I had the set before and my question is can you convert the front knuckle coupler to work like the rear and if so can you do it without changing the chassis or doing minor small cutting

Large / Gauge 1
July 04, 2015, 04:58:54 PM
I don't know if this should be in large or general but I need to know I am converting a bunch of Trumpeter model trains over to running operating trains and I would like to know if it is considered gauge 1 because I know 1/32 scale is

Thomas & Friends / O gauge Thomas and friends
June 23, 2015, 05:09:24 PM
I have a problem I would like to build a large scale Thomas and friends layout. I have selected O gauge for it, but I don't know anybody that produces the models and being in Alabama I'm not able to get to a real hobby shop to ask where I can find O gauge models. I know Lionel has some but I don't like the way they look. I want to know who else deals Thomas and friends in O gauge? I hope you can help me out-Thanks
