Introducing T-MO
Combining the best of Freemo and T-TRAK yields a fun way to enjoy table top prototype modeling while escaping the clutches of the rigid (but brilliant) Unitrack geometry.
Turns out I’ve been modeling Strasburg all along…
Some of my earliest and warmest railroad related memories had to do with visiting the legendary Strasburg Rail Road. A recent arrival made me realize that I’ve secretly been modeling with almost every layout I’ve built. Let me explain…
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.
Some Photos From the 2024 Altoona N Scale Weekend
The 2024 Altoona N Scale Weekend was a blast. I very much appreciate the way that the FreemoN gang will let randos come play too (provided they play by the rules). So I took full advantage of that and the combined TTRAK layout to grab some fun photos of my recent V&O 603 build.
My TTRAK Technology Demonstrator Module
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, […]
Using my “Hacked Unitrack” on a TTRAK Module
This is how to use my 3D printed Unitrack compatible roadbed and non-Kato track on a TTRAK module.
Module Leg Leveling Bolt Knobs
Adjusting the leveling bolts on NTRAK and TTRAK modules sucks. Adding some printed knobs makes it far easier. These are those knobs.
Conrail 6466: My Intermountain SD40-2 “Keeper”
Back in 2017 I was incredibly excited to receive my order of four of Intermountain’s Conrail SD40-2s. Seven years, countless hours of work, and quite a few additional dollars later, I’ve decided I’m only keeping one of them. But she does look good…
My TTRAK Modules
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.
After a big push of scenery in Windsor St, trains are running again
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.
