A Very Basic Intro to My NCR Layout
I like sharing my hobby with a wide range of people, some with plenty of railroad knowledge and some with very little. This is an introduction to the layout for the latter.

I put my TTRAK Technology Demonstrator Module together to show off a few of the innovations I’ve developed and discovered to help make more interesting or user friendly modules. You can learn about the various aspects of the module in this post: Hacked Unitrack, 3D Printed Leg Adjuster Knobs, my Standard Below Grade TTRAK Frame, […]
This is how to use my 3D printed Unitrack compatible roadbed and non-Kato track on a TTRAK module.
I needed to pull together a list of my TTRAK modules for a layout coordinator and figured it made the most sense to do as a blog post here. Here’s my current TTRAK menu.
I got tired of my vast unsceniced yard, so I started scenicing it. Then I got tired of not being able to run trains anymore, so I finished it. Mostly.
My past few visits to the East Broad Top and it’s phoenix like resurrection have given me an itch, and V scale, or virtual modeling, has given me an easy way to scratch it.
A recent Reddit thread made me realize I should share some photos of some of the high quality TTRAK modules that I’ve seen (and a few that I’ve built that might measure up).
The time of staring at an unpainted yard full of track has come to an end. Last night we blew the trench whistle and went over the top.
Sometimes in my haste to make progress I create downstream problems for myself. Sometimes those problems go beyond the physical. And sometimes the only way to solve them is to just Eat the Frog and do it. I did both these things in my New NCR’s Windsor St Yard.
I’m not building my New NCR Layout to host a ton of people. Instead I’m building it for smaller “experiences”. I just got my chance to host my first one, and I am pretty happy with how it went.
