(1) Are you actually working to 14mm gauge?
No, currently building (slowly) in On30. But my prototype is 2'
gauge, and I am still uncommitted to 1/4" and 16.5mm gauge. I shall be
investigating the feasibility of converting mechs to 14mm gauge, and
if it all works I may then move to 7mm.
(3) What are you modelling?
Tin mining tramways in Far North Queensland.
(4) Are you on DC or DCC or thinking of the latter?
My HOn30 layout uses DCC, and I plan to install decoders in anything I
do in O. (Whichever O). Almost certainly sound decoders. Being a
regular operator on an On3 layout with most locos sound equipped, it
is very odd to hear no noise when a loco is moving...
(5) Be as vague as you choose, but roughly where are you?
Mitcham, VIC, Australia
