A Start!

Hi All,
Well Wayne has gotten me sucked back into HO (my original scale) again! So in anticipation of receiving his extra track, I pulled my old track out tonight t see what I could create.

So here is what I got:



It is a combination of Tomy (15" curves & back straight), Tyco (12" curves in the middle), & Lifelike (all the rest) track on a 4 x 8 table. Not sure I like the flow, but it does work & it all connected together.

With Wayne's extras & a little time, it will get better!

A very nice start indeed. I am sure you will change it a few times before you get the right setup for you.

Thanks Austin,
I was just happy to get it all to join together!

The hard part is LL doesn't have a 3" straight, only 6, 9, & 15.

Then they decided to make their adapter track pieces about 5 3/4" instead of 6" so it is hard to get everything to line up at the end.

A good looking layout. I like these type of open, flowing circuits vs the bowl of spaghetti that some prefer. Keep on having fun!

Very nice Greg!

Sorry I haven't got back to you.

Our New Year started with a crashed computer hard drive.

I'm on my inlaws now.

Your track will go out tomorrow.

I'll be in touch once I work out our computer issues.

Your track looks great so far!

Happy New Year!

Wayne :D :D :D :D

Thanks Wayne!

All I have to say about computer issues is Chromebox!

Hi All,
So here is what the track looks like now:


I picked up 2 more 15" Tomy curves so that I could create the outside loop. It still has LL track in it for the power track & I had to add adaptors to both sides since they are an odd size. The interior loop is 12" Tyco curves with LL long straights. Obviously I would need one more 15" Tyco straight if I were to keep this layout. It is fun to run though.

I picked these up today too:
