Fascists dont exist in my model railroad.

NYC&HR 999 is finished for now. I may rebuild her eventually to figure out the issue with the speed, but for now its another engine running.

Stealing this from Facebook The narrowest gauge industrial railway in the world was fucking OO gauge A Hornby Dublo 4MT transported radioactive material for the Atomic Energy Authority because the chamber was too toxic for humans to enter

Painted my nails last night.

Felt like posting some of my gauge 3 things. For those unaware, thats 1:22.6 scale on 2.5" gauge track. These were a mix of wood scratchbuilds, resin kits, and the engine is steel and 3D printed. I built these between 2015 and 2018.

Gave my On3 engines a quick test after theyve been sitting for a few years. All 4 powered up fine but one of my climaxes was refusing to move. Oh well. Future issue to solve.

I made a Steak and Guinness pie yesterday. Is tasty.

Victorian goodness at the East Lancs Gala this weekend.

I'm calling this mostly done! Added some final details/ weathering and I'm fairly happy with the result. Still needs a brake wheel though If people want I'll upload the files on cults3d as a pay what you want! Any sales goes towards new 3d projects #pacificelectric #modeltrains #hoscale

Man Precision Scale sure can make a brass model, wow. This shit is insane

I also recently discovered Ozark miniatures gladhands can be made functional with one tiny modification, I will be using this discovery for evil 😈

These fucking rock, that's really nice work. It's always a fun time explaining what Gauge 3 is to the average American modeler who has never heard of it and does not believe you lol. I've had the discussion many times because my Mt Washington cog models are G3

There's a new kit up on the shop! This little Neilson engine. It's based on the Great Eastern's 209 class, later LNER Y5. 1 of the 8 locos built was later adapted into a tram engine and was used in Colchester. So I've used lots of it's features in this narrow gauge spinoff!

Stuffing as much lead as I can into the cab. Hopefully itll improve pulling power with so much weight so far aft.

Test run with train. Will easily pull three plastic wheeled cars around 18" radius curves. With four cars it started to slip when ascending the grade onto my chair mat.

A fantastic add to the collection, a brass E-33. Runs well, paint is in good condition, and it’s complete. What makes it better is it only cost $25 from a local hobby shop! A lucky find and a locomotive I’ve been looking to get for a while. Looks to have the builders name inside too! #modelrailroad

What a magnificent loco the S160 on the NYMR is. Ugly, but magnificent.

Heres another test run from Friday. She managed 3.5 cars without extra weight so with her cab stuffed with lead she should be good.

I realized being a guy was miserable. And that I didnt have to be anymore. Tho I still hold the covid vaccine caused my egg to crack.

Silly little reminder this thing exists. I really should fill it with something tasty.

Where I'm at this morning

Finally finished the paint job on my Suydam North Shore 700 series interurban car, absolutely delighted by how well this came out! It has a NCE DCC decoder in it too, additional pickups added and runs like a dream. Eventually I’d like to add the headlights to the doors, but that’s for another day

999 got whitewalls and the headlight wired up. Shes looking beautiful now, just a shame about her top speed.

999 got to stretch her legs last night. The motor/gearbox/wheels SHOULD give 100mph top speed, but it doesnt. She doesnt hit 70. Speed curve seems to plateau around 80/126. Running a tsunami2 decoder. Anyone know what I need to change?

Have a nice scenic picture of my new flatcar load.

Also as part of the fall foliage festival weekend, my Alpine Tunnel display has been set up for the weekend at Catamount Arts, a local nonprofit visual and performing arts center! It’s part of larger train themed activities around town in addition to the foliage train ride ran by VRS.

NYC&HR 999 has been getting wired up. And after a quick test, she works! Just needs a lot of weight to balance her out.

A short freight made up of wood kits I didnt build, including a couple freelance cars from the Beaver River Shortline and the Genesee River RR.

Big update, it's coming along Wish the decals went on a bit better but im still working on it, ill probably order a set to be printed next time instead of just using my inkjet. For the cost of roughly $45 it sure beats $400+ for the brass equivalent. The most expensive part is the flatcar kit

The ICE 3 runs beautifully with new traction tires. She topped out at 192mph.

999 has gotten decals. Gods I hate doing stripes.

I love when bsky just doesnt work.

Another ebay purchase I upgraded with my scale couplers and air hoses. Trucks alone were worth the price.
