    Another big step, and love the little comedy bits, too! I am impressed with how the loco running never disturbed your work... quick adjustment and let it through.

    Another great video. New track is always exciting and combined with the loco running on the outside loop at the same time… does not get any better. It still scares me that you do not have some sort of railing around on your bridge. Thanks Jeff

    • @ScottRails

      This was only made possible by adding the lift bridge. I didn't like the idea at first, but it's working well, and will look better when I make it an actual nice bridge to look at.

    Laying cork may not be your favorite task. But you do a wonderful job, I love seeing folks doing this making the job look easy. I never could do it, so my track has road bed, fastrack .

  • @AstroKnight118
    @AstroKnight118 6 месяцев назад

    I use a mix of flex track and sectional track based on how I feel when I am building and I tend to replace the sectional track later if it’s causing problems, but usually it doesn’t if you give it a good clean every once and a while. Right now on my grandfathers layout we are replacing the sectional track and the old switches with flex track and nice walthers switches. Love your layout, Dave, looks great so far

    • @ScottRails
      @ScottRails  6 месяцев назад

      Sectional track is just fine, but it's not great on inclines, especially curved sectional track.

    hey Dave, I thought you might have taken the turnout for your outer staging line just after the station, then that would give you a larger staging area. just a thought. love the videos.

    • @ScottRails
      @ScottRails  6 месяцев назад

      I thought about that, but it would mean another over reaching area in the corner. I plan to make scenic areas in blocks, which I can place in the corners and forget about.

      Absolutely. I will also paint over all the solder joins.

  • @avlisk
    @avlisk 6 месяцев назад

    I haven't used Atlas turnouts for a long time. But when I did, wires couldn't be soldered to the frogs. They had metal bars that screwed into the frogs which would take solder and allowed the frogs to be powered. Let us know if it's still the same. Thanks.

    • @ScottRails
      @ScottRails  6 месяцев назад

      They have just one little bar with a hole. Still confused what to do with them. I thought there should be two connections.

    • @avlisk
      @avlisk 6 месяцев назад

      No. Only one wire to the frog, and the polarity of that wire changes depending on whether the frog needs to be + or - . That's why I love the Tam Valley Frog juicer so much with DCC. 2 wires into the Juicer, one wire to the frog. A Tortoise, or similar under table switch machine does the same thing. @@ScottRails

    There isn’t a Home Depot in Canada anywhere within a 200 km radius of me that has those cork sheets in stock.
    There’s a Home Depot not far from me in NY state that has some so either I’m fishing out my passport or coming up with an alternative. And you can’t find the conventional Midwest product anywhere either. Every online retailer has them on back order. And Amazon is no help either.
    I recently did what you did and ripped up my old layout and now I can’t run any trains for lack of roadbed. Progress at a complete standstill. So frustrating.
