Vectron locomotives on my modeltren layout

After a long time, PDU-073 has time for his hobby: model railways. Note: This uniform is not automatically available to every Polo drone. It is tied to the completion of certain additional tasks and a stricter approach to the drone rules. This can also be revoked.

28 & 33

I started writing a reply and then Tumblr killed it, grrr… Let me try again.

28 is „Do you collect anything“ and 33 is „any hobbies“, and I’ll answer them together because the answer is the same: Model trains! In N scale, otherwise unspecific, from any country and any era that I find interesting. My collection is unreasonably large; I won’t give any numbers because I frankly lost count years ago, but it is growing. Currently I have three trains are preordered.

This hobby is not just collecting, though. I also hilf custom electronics for it (here a very simple example), and I build landscape sections for it:

There’s another that I finished recently but I need to do some more cleaning up before I can take good pictures of it. Anyway, thank you for asking, as you can see I love talking about this!

Die Wuppertalbahn im Modell - Von Dahlhaus nach Kräwinklerbrücke

The Wuppertal Railway was put into operation in several sections from 1886 to 1910 and ran from the Bergisches Land to the Märkisches Kreis to Westphalia and of course back again. The line was closed in the mid-1980s. The Reviermodule e.V. association has recreated a piece of this historic railway line on several modules. The journey goes from Dahlhaus (Wupper) to Kräwinklerbrücke. The station buildings and bridges are laser cut from cardboard. On the way are typical passenger and freight trains from the 1950s and 1960s. A special feature is a push-pull train, pulled or pushed by a V36 with a raised driver's cab. In overrun mode, the locomotive driver sits in the front sidecar and transmits the driving commands to the mechanical assistant via a bell cable. This operates the diesel locomotive.

Schweizer Trutzburg

Dieser Anlagenentwurf mit der mächtigen Trutzburg in der Mitte wurde in der Schweiz angesiedelt Er stellt eine interessante Va nation des alten Themas der doppelgleisigen Haupt strecke mit verdeckt an geordneten Überholgleisen und abzweigender Neben bahn dar. Die großzügigen Parameter dieses Systems fordern insofern ihren Preis, als bei der Grundfläche ei nes Doppelbetts in HO auf einige Gleise im Bahnhof verzichtet werden musste.

Damit es kein stures Rund herumfahren auf der zwei gleisigen Hauptstrecke gibt, von der nur ein kleiner Teil sichtbar ist, gibt es eine zu sätzliche Kehrschleife im verdeckten Teil der Anlage, die für einen Verkehr von A (dem hochgelegenen End bahnhof) nach B (einem in der Tiefe liegenden Ziel bahnhof) so angeordnet ist. dass Züge aus dem Neben bahnhof nach ein- oder mehrmaligem Durchfahren des zweigleisigen Kreises dort ihre Fahrtrichtung wie der ändern können.

Train Layout Trackplan Around A Swiss Stronghold:

[see track plan and two page spread] This island design with the mighty castle stronghold Trutzburg in the middle of the layout is set in archetypal Switzerland. It represents interesting overhead electrified railroading of vintage Swiss theme, with heavy-traffic double-track main line (with concealed passing tracks) and branch lines branching as branch lines do. The cost of all this opulent operation in HO scale is floor space roughly the same as an IKEA double bed (who needs to sleep anyway?), and that some tracks that would normally be found in the station had to be dispensed with to keep things compact.

So that there are more interesting operations than just tail-chasing on the two tracks of the main line (of which only a small stretch is visible), there is a clever reversing loop in the hidden trackage [ see inset line drawing ] which will be used for traffic from the high, branch line terminal station to a division point further down on the main line (which is assumed to exist but in reality is convincingly simulated by that hidden reverse loop). As you can see, that way trains leaving the branch line terminus station through the main line junction can return to their origin after racking up the miles circling in either direction on the double track mainline as many or few times as desired.

In HO the layout is a square 6'8"×6'8" with generous curves on the visible trackage with 21¼" minimum radius and tighter 18" minimum radius curves for the hidden trackage (Swiss railways had shorter equipment and tighter curves).

Anlagengröße in HO: 2.00 x 2,00 m,

Gleisradien sichtbar 54 cm, verdeckt 48 cm

Thank you for suffering through my bad trainsliteration X-) of precision German. This layout first caught my eye referenced on a Japanese model railroading forum but it took me ages to track X-) it down. Once I got the title, imaginatively trainslated, "Train Layout Track Plans" -- I found the couple photos here, corrected the keystoning, and am throwing it up here to hopefully inspire someone else in turn.

As presented, it's roughly 1919 to 1946 for the best of the eclectic and most iconic Swiss trains, such as the Swiss "crocodile" locomotives. The Swiss Federal Railways Schweizerische Bundesbahnen, SBB is it's own rabbit hole for the casual railfans to fall down; the Swiss fortresses, such as found in the Bellinzona region's castles, curtain walls, and medieval defensive architecture yet another rabbit hole. The whole Alpine region, really.
