Re: where do you get your track?
I'm new to the List, but as a very Hi-Tech and uniquely Accurate DIY track manufacturer, I'm working on fixing many of the track availability/pricing issues I see mentioned here.

I'm taking the successful designs I use for making HO track and gradually working them into Z scale versions. So what I have newly made may be of help to some of you already, and what's coming beyond that, hopefully will be of lots of use to many of you. Some easy to use turnout building tools are also in the works for later this year This is a new product announcement, so please contact me off list with any just commercially related questions. Suggestions for improvements or other needs are of course welcomed on or off-list :) Andy Reichert Passionate realistic track modeler, Founder and Designer, The Proto:87 Stores --- In Z-Bend_Track@..., "Craig Stuart" <craig@...> wrote:

He has been banned twice from the Z_Scale list, and from what I hear several other lists. First time was for harvesting email addresses and spamming list members. Then he tried to sneak back in under the name 'miniaff'.

Well Glen, he is 'mini', but that must pertain to his gray matter since he keeps coming back for more. You gotta feel sorry for a guy who must have 500,000 cheap Chinese figures that he needs to unload somewhere.

New Product Line
Hobby Crafts N More announces a new product line: The Zelatory! What is The Zelatory?
The new manufacturer The Zelatory has a couple of new conversion pieces for Z scale. These are the conversion pieces to be able to put Micro Trains Line trucks and couplers on Marklin Mikado/Pacific tenders and cabooses. The purpose of these conversions are that when you remove the Marklin trucks and couplers, the holes don't line up with the Micro Trains trucks and couplers and this bar-when put on correctly-provides accurate holes for the MTL trucks and couplers. There are two different conversions. One for the Marklin Mikado/Pacific tender and a separate one for the Marklin cabooses. The pieces are professionally made and come with full step-by-step instructions complete with photos. We'd also like to announce a new Manufacturer link list to help you find your favorite manufacturers faster! ***Don't forget: Hobby Crafts N More also carries Hayes style bumping posts, wiring harnesses, and lots of other smaller manufacturers.

Z Scale Briefcase Layout Featured On Tour - March 14-15 (Southern Calif.)
Members of this group living in Southern and Central California are
invited to another FREE model railroad layout tour sponsored by Model Railroads of Southern California the weekend of March 14 and 15. There is one Z scale layout featured on this tour and this one fits in a briefcase. It's described below. This will be our sixteenth layout tour. This will be a self-guided tour of twenty-two layouts at eleven sites in Bakersfield, the Lake Isabella area and Tehachapi. By scale, there will be ten HO layouts, five N layouts, two O layouts, one Z layout, three G layouts and one live steam set-up. (See descriptions below). Below is basic information about the tour. This information is sufficient for you to take the tour. Additional downloadable information, including driving references, two maps for every layout and an overall area map, is available in the Files Section of the group at: Be sure to check the group website the day before the tour to see if any changes to the schedule or layout lineup have occurred. Some of the layouts will be on display at the huge two-day Train Show at the Kern County Fairgrounds. In addition to the show there will be approximately 120 vendor tables plus manufacturer displays at this show. Persons taking this tour assume all risks and liability for their personal safety. Although I am the Moderator of the group, I am not responsible for personal loss or injury to those taking this tour. If you cannot make this tour, more tours are being planned, including a tour of South Orange County layouts in May. If you wish to open your home layout for an upcoming tour, please contact me. Bob Chaparro Moderator Model Railroads of Southern California Hemet, CA chiefbobbb@... Model Railroads of Southern California Layout Tour No. 16 Saturday & Sunday March 14 & 15, 2009 These Layouts Are Open Only Saturday Evening, March 14 Golden Empire Historical & Modeling Society 7:00 pm to 10:00 pm HO& N 1534 19th Street, Bakersfield 661-325-2595 For club's downtown location enter through the alley door then take stairs to the second and third floors for the HO and N scale layouts. Parking is on the street. East/West streets are one way. This club boasts two large layouts, one each in HO and N scale. The HO layout, located on the 3rd floor, is approximately 30 feet in width and 100 feet long. Two large yards are located at each end of the layout, with several industries located in between. The layout is currently a work-in-progress, but they are able to operate on it. Several scenery projects are currently in progress on the layout. Digitrax's Digital Command Control powers the layout, as on the N scale layout. The N scale layout is 18 feet wide and 80 feet long, and includes a scaled-down version of the Tehachapi Loop. The club has extensive scenery work in progress. Anyone who models in N scale is welcome to bring their decoder-equipped locomotives and run them along the 15 scale miles of mainline from Bakersfield to Mojave. Club photos: Larry Saslaw 6:00 pm to 8:00 pm HO 14700 Orchard Crest Avenue, Bakersfield 661-588-2770 and 661-706- 2673 This HO scale layout is based on Southern Pacific's Dunsmuir engine facilities and Shasta Division, circa 1954 (and last day of Southern Pacific operations onSept 11, 1996). Larry has used plans of the roundhouse, machine shops, mallet shed, sanding tower and station from MAINLINE MODELER articles of the early 1980s. The layout is built within the third stall of his garage and measures 12' x 21' feet. There concept is based on a climbing out of the Sacramento River from lower Dunsmuir yard, through the engine facilities, up the canyon past Shasta Springs, across Hotlum (Dry Canyon) up to a second level to what could be the summit at Siskyou (Larry has used artistic license to switch lines)up to a helix and down, or reverse loops on top and bottom. The layout climbs twice around the room, from the helix and Dunsmuir yard and shops located on the center peninsula, around the room twice, back onto the peninsula to the top of the helix. Larry's intent is to portray the scenery and feeling of railroading in the Shasta Route. He uses Digitrax Radio DCC and has a sample of SP steam, Diesels, Shasta Daylight, Klamath, lumber trains of the 1954 era. He also can switch out the whole power and rolling stock to portray the last days of the SP with the Coast Starlight. The layout was on the SPH&TS Bakersfield Tour in September 2008. These Home Layouts Are Open Only Sunday, March 15 John Bell 10:00 to 4:00 G Scale 19512 Sycamore Drive, Tehachapi 661-823-1308 Do not turn on to Sycamore Drive from Woodford-Tehachapi Road. Segment is steep and unpaved. Use Pinion Canyon to Sage Ave. to Sycamore Drive to reach this site. John's garden layout has 1,050-feet of track in single loop, with an 80-foot siding, 10 bridges and 6 tunnels. Part of the run goes down a mountain river canyon on a two percent grade. John's pride-and-joy is his Union Pacific Big Boy, which you will be able to view upon your visit ¨C along with all his other locomotives ¨C from Southern Pacific to Rio Grande, and everything in between. Most of the equipment is 1:29. John's home overlooks the former Southern Pacific (now UP) "Cable Siding" on the mainline just west of Tehachapi. John bought this property because he is a rail buff, and has made improvements to his property for just that ¨C rail fanning! There is a viewing area where you can see his train and the prototype in a perspective where they both appear to be part of a real railroad scene. John has picnic tables and folding chairs for rail fans to enjoy the view from his location, so bring your cameras, relax, and enjoy the view while enjoying the coffee that John provides. Here is a link to some photos: Richard Cantrell 12:00 to 4:00 HOn3 21661 Winesap Street, Tehachapi 661-822-0932 Richard models the Denver and Rio Grande Western in HO and HO narrow gauge. Richard's layout contains some impressive scenery depicting Colorado. The upper level is narrow gauge, while the lower level is standard gauge. The layout measures 20' x 24'. (Page 2- Two Photos) Ron Funk 10:00 to 4:00 HO 713 Piute Street, Bodfish (Lake Isabella Area) 760-417-0965 and 760-379-4449 Park in the Piute Street cul-de-sac and walk up driveway to layout. Ron has taken on the task of recreating the track plan of John Allen's legendary Gorre and Daphetid Railroad and about 85 percent of Ron's track plan is familiar to those that recall the G & D. Ron's father, Al, started the work about 25 years ago, and after his death the layout was completed by his son, Ron. Ron's railroad is set in the 1940s to 1950s era, housed in a 20' x 40' building with the layout occupying most of the space. It features high mountains, spectacular bridges and a large array of scratch built and finely detailed buildings and scenes. Motive power is an assortment of both steam and diesel from various western railroads including Southern Pacific, Santa Fe, Union Pacific and Western Pacific. The railroad is operated with Digitrax DCC power with sound. Vern Hill 10:00 to 4:00 O Scale 601 Sierra Vista Drive, Wofford Heights (Lake Isabella Area) 760- 376-3506 and 760-379-0568 This O-scale layout measures 13' x 21'. Track is mostly hand laid to Proto 48 standards. The basic track plan is an over-and-under folded dog bone with a hidden storage yard into the adjoining garage. All track work, with the exception of an engine service area and industrial spur, is complete along with about 85 percent of the scenery. The layout represents generic Southern Pacific, circa 1955, with a mix of steam and diesel. Most modelers are aware that SP had what nearly amounted to an Eastern Sierra line from Klamath Falls, Oregon to Mojave, including the SP narrow gauge from Keeler to Laws and north over Mt. Montgomery Pass. In Vern's historical "imagineering", he has standard gauged the line and the layout represents a section of that fictional scenario. Rolling stock includes some brass, Intermountain, Red Caboose and Atlas equipment. The locomotive roster includes models from Glacier Park, Sunset and old Atlas. All have been converted to Proto 48 standards. The layout controls are standard no-frills DC as are the controls for the signal system (target and semaphore). A sound system remains on the wish list. Mountain Crossing Restaurant 5:30am to 10:30pm HO 416 W. Tehachapi Blvd., Tehachapi 661-823-0450 The restaurant has an HO scale operating display layout of the Tehachapi Loop. The layout is operated by the Tehachapi Loop Railroad Club. A club member may or may not be available to answer questions about the layout. An outreach education program, maintenance of "The Tehachapi Loop HO layout" at the Mountain Crossing Restaurant and the future restoration of the Tehachapi Depot are but a few of the ongoing projects supported by the Tehachapi Loop Railroad Club Rick Passalacqua 10:30 to 4:30 G Scale 24140 San Juan Drive, Tehachapi 661-821-7277 and 661-477-2199 Gated Community. On the day of the tour call 661-477-2199 and leave name to receive access permission. On Bear Valley Road you enter thru gate and you pass a gas station and store. About a mile past store turn left on the second San Juan Drive. (You will pass San Juan Drive on right side, before the San Juan Drive on the left. Rick's Rock Back Breaking Railroad is an outdoor G scale layout with almost 1,000 feet of track. Trains enter the mainline from a 10' x 12' shed that protects the equipment. There are three lines that run separate but all interconnect. Usually a minimum of three trains are running at once. Rick operates both steam and diesel over his empire. Viewing is from all sides or in the middle seating area with the trains running around you. There are lots of big trees but not much in scale landscaping or structures as yet. Bob Sagers 12:00 to 4:00 N Scale 23031 Tulip Court, Tehachapi 661-822-6655 Layout located on lower floor. Walk down to back of house and enter through patio door. This N-scale layout is an L-shape design in a 27' x 47' area. There is 1,100 total feet of track, with 550 feet viable. The rest is hidden track for staging. Bob describes the layout as "a railfans delight". There are no yards or industries, but lots of mainline action. Currently he runs five to six trains concurrently on three independent main tracks. Layout is not yet sceniced. The area being modeled is the B&O's Magnolia Cut-off. From 1912-1914 that railroad built a new grade, four tunnels, an 1,800 foot fill, and two bridges to straighten fourteen miles of original right of way and cut the mileage down to a seven miles with mild curves. Both the original line and the new line were used until 1960, when the original alignment, which follows the meandering Potomac River, was abandoned. Photos have been placed around front edge to show what it will eventually look like. The layout is built with the lowest tracks at 57' and highest at 61". This would make it unsuitable for viewing by young children (unless held) or by short adults. Layout is walk-around with duckunders. Comfort considerations limit viewing to no more then ten people at any one time. If someone gets tired of watching the model trains, they can wander out back and watch the real thing. Dan Steinberg 10:00 to 2:00 G Scale 19801 E. Abajo Avenue, Tehachapi 661-823-8514 From Cherry Lane turn onto Marvel and turn right onto Abajo (no street sign at this junction, only a sign post). Take Abajo (gravel road) to reach 19801. The Stone Mountain Railway has two independent loops. The mainline loop is 15 feet by 30 feet, with a 20 foot siding and 4 foot radius curves. The other loop is a mining branch which is 10 foot by 20 foot, running on 2 foot radius curves. The mining branch includes an impressive wooden trestle and a tunnel. The site of this layout has a nice viewpoint of the Tehachapi Valley. Link to photos of the layout: Kern County Fairgrounds/Train Show Layouts- Open Saturday & Sunday Saturday 10:00 to 5:00 Sunday 10:00 to 4:00 Horace Massey Building 1142 S. "P" Street, Bakersfield Canfield Family Circus ¨C This portable HO layout from Fullerton is a 13' x 39' animated HO circus layout. It consists of operating railroads, a typical American town with street parade, amusement park and a complete tented circus with Midway, Menagerie, Big Top, and Backyard built and displayed by the Canfield Family. The circus contains over 20 animated displays with hundreds of lights controlled by a dedicated computer. The tents are all handmade, as are most of the circus wagons and trains. Many of the thousands of people and animals are hand-painted. Several of the buildings and vehicles are collectors' items from around the world. The Canfield Family Circus first went on the road in 1974, and it has been exhibited at schools, libraries, museums, hobby shows, shopping malls, and fairs. Here is a photo link: Daylight Division's Time Saver - Measuring 18" x 5', this is an HO scale switching contest layout on which participants compete to see who can complete a switching assignment in the least amount of time. The original Time Saver Layout was developed by model railroading legend John Allen. Here is a link to the layout and the concept: Golden Empire Historical and Modeling Society ¨C The Society will display their 3' X 22' modular N scale layout. This layout gives just a hint of their accomplishments as the Society also has an HO scale modular layout plus permanent layouts in their clubhouse in both HO and N scale. Club website: Greg Faluszczak- Studio City resident Greg Faluszczak will display his 3' x 5' N scale layout. Group 160 ¨C This club will display a 16' x 32' modular N scale layout. The Group 160 NTRAK club is based in Burbank. Group 160's layouts are modular and adhere to the NTRAK 2000 standard. Standard NTRAK modules a either four, six or eight feet long by two feet wide; the NTRAK 2000 standard uses modules of similar length but with a 30" width, allowing a bit more room for scenery or industry. The club owns four corner modules, each of which is approximately 4' square. It also has modules comprising an offset S curve as well as modules depicting the lumber industry, a farm, and a refinery, among others, and a yard consisting of twelve eighteen foot tracks plus a complex throat that marshals the assembled trains on to the main and branch lines. In general, the Club modules embrace a Pacific Northwest theme, but the members' modules express a broad range of interests: orange groves and fruit packing are well represented, as are small towns even one that is devastated by a tornado every few minutes. Club Home Page: Guy Krivanek ¨C Guy will display a 4' x 8' O scale trolley layout and Z scale layout that fits in a brief case. High Desert Modular Railroad Club ¨C This club from Lancaster will display a 36' x 60' modular HO layout. One of the Club's modules depicts San Pedro Harbor early 1900s. Vessels, dock & bridge on this module are scratch built. At a recent PSR convention their modules not only showed well but they also walked away with several awards from the contest room. Kern County Live Steamers ¨C This local Bakersfield group will be operating their 1.5" scale equipment at the Train Show. They have some 700 feet of panel track they can set up for shows and rides. Club website: Left Coast Group ¨C This is a California-based HOn30 modular group. They will set-up a 21' x 21' modular HO layout. Pictures of some of their modules can be viewed on this link by clicking on the various module titles in the text: Southern Valley Railways ¨C This local Bakersfield group will display 4' x 8' and 10' x 14' modular HO layouts. NOTES: Please observe the hours of operation for the layouts. No smoking at any of the layouts. Admission to Fairgrounds is $6.00 for adults, kids 12 and under admitted free when accompanied by a paying adult. Admission is good for both days |
