#hobbyStreak 23 Cleaned my workbench. Deeply. Some of those stains had been there for years. I blame my wife #modelRailway #modelRailroad
Hehehe #ModelRailway
Might take it to work as an office Christmas decoration. #ModelRailway
And yes, they really do move! #ModelRailway
It’s almost time for this to come out. #ModelRailway
#hobbyStreak 23 The point of no return: disassembling the old wheels. #modelRailway #modelRailroad
Anyway, I had a gift card for the shop and so it's essentially free, right? Yes. Well, maybe. Ok, no, but some money off it. #ModelRailway
Oh no, found a model for sale of a locomotive I worked on last Christmas. So so tempting, and it's cheap too… #ModelRailway
#hobbyStreak 21. Apparently you’re supposed to be able to fit a piece of paper between a worm and its gear. #modelRailway #modelRailroad
Derailments reduced at the cattle pen turnout, it’s time to run a train! #hobbyStreak 20 #modelRailway #modelRailroad
I did once start a small 3ft x 1ft N-gauge #modelrailway layout about 15 years ago (I posted about it here, sadly some of the pics have disappeared: https://www.rmweb.co.uk/topic/21855-small-n-gauge-layout-chinthurst/), it’s still in the garage loft since we moved 10 years ago though and is very incomplete. I think I might have been a bit ambitious, so maybe need to start something simple.
Tonight the track gang visited the wide spot past the cattle pen turnout. #hobbyStreak 19 #modelRailway #modelRailroad
Spent today’s hobby time on the agenda and follow-ups for tomorrow’s Railway Modellers Meet of BC planning meeting. #hobbyStreak 18 #modelRailway #modelRailroad. (No photo because it’s boring but necessary)
A little project I've been working on this weekend - An N scale analog train controller using an esp32, which allows for the train to be controlled from any browser.
In my case, the location I have in mind for this layout doesn't have room for a physical controller, and this opens up the possibility of automating the scene in the future.
I did also buy another narrow gauge wagon yesterday. It’s one that can only be bought from the model shop in this region (although it’s Leighton Buzzard so not exactly close!). It’s a wonderful shade of green. #ModelRailway
