I haven't been doing much over the summer. But I have started working on one of the industries a couple of days ago and there's a meeting with modules in just a few weeks.
Thanks! The part no. of the ESU decoder is 58923. The nano is a little less wide than the micro I have used in the past so it fits inside the shell without having to sand the inside of the shell to make room. The speaker is a Zimo LS8x12. It's one of those small sugar cube speakers.
The sound is so much better than my factory installed ESU Atlas GP40. Unlike your model my Atlas prime mover doesn't sound anywhere near as good. Nice work and is the rail code40?
That's interesting. I have a GP30 and two GP39-2 with ESU factory sound and they all sound great. They need some balancing between the prime mover and the other sound effects though. And they come with their volume set to incredibly loud and need the volume dialed down by quite a bit. The rail is all code 40 indeed.
sorry about creeping away from your original topic but I'm really interested in your trackwork technique. I construct my own code 40 turnouts as well and I don't use fixtures or jigs. I normally build them on my bench on printed paper templates but would like to build them in place on the layout the way you did to minimize the joints. I 3d print sections of ties (10 or so) between the PCB ties and found it working pretty well. Very nice work!
Gorgeous layout
Welcome back
Welcome back , its been a while. any updates on your modules?

Very nice!
What parts did you use (speaker, board #'s etc)?

@@ModularRailroading thanks for that! I may have to look at getting a couple for my SD24/26's 👍
@@ATSF1317 That sounds like a good plan! I have recorded most of the installation process, so there should be a video on that ready soon(ish).
@@ModularRailroading looking forward to seeing that 👍
