Hi just found your channel and going through your videos, how is your wiring done , it doesn’t look like there is any underneath the baseboard
@davidrigby798422 күн бұрын
my layout is very simple, all the track is powered from the supplied power supply in the tt120 digital train sets, I.e the power track peice. I have power clips on all points and this gives me power accross the entire layout meaning there is no requirement to have a Bus wire.

It’s come on a lot. It’s great to see how different all the TT:120 layouts are. Never seen a golf course modelled. 😊

Looking and sounding great....just ordered the green version this morning.... doesn't really fit the era I'm doing but just couldn't resist.
@davidrigby7984Ай бұрын
you won't be disappointed, the class 50 and my HST are by far the best running models, think I do prefer the diesels to be honest though. I am thinking i need the green version also. 🙂 thanks for watching.

What a great idea laying down the ballast first, that's how its done on real railways. I suppose the critical thing is getting it level and even for the track. Did you lay the track on the ballast while it was still drying or did you wait till had set?
@davidrigby7984Ай бұрын
I applied a thin layer of pva with a brush, then scattered the ballast over the top, waited until dry, and then hoovered off. as long as you just paint the glue on and it's not all thick and lumpy, you will get a consistent level track bed. it's been much simpler in my eyes And no messing around tying to ballast around point work. also if and track work needs to be replaced in the future it's more straight forward. thanks for watching.

Quite an imaginative layout. It is good that you are one of the pioneers in this scale. Thanks for uploading.

yeah I started the layout roughly last September, there's still alot of work yet to do, alot of fine details but we are getting there.

Nice touch with the golf course. I was planning to put one on an unused corner of my layout, but sadly I couldn't find any golfers in the correct scale at the time! I see Noch make some in HO, but can you get them in TT120? Liked and Subbed by the way, I want to follow your progress!! Cheers, Andy

I havent tried to find any tt120 golfers, I think ill have to be adventurous and bodge something together, either that or I'll say course is closed due to bad weather 😅

Looking good, Dave. Re folding the layout up, it doesn't look as if you have an offset for the hinges away from the wall? Is this something you're planning to add?
@davidrigby79844 ай бұрын
Thanks, When the layout is folded it isn't vertically folded its on a slight angle which allows for the front half of the scenery height to not hit the wall. the bacl half of the layout nearest to the hinges alis mainly track work and won't consist of much height of this makes sense. I will post a video of it in the folded position soon. thanks again for the comments.

I’m so glad I found your videos, I’ve been stalling with TT . I think the scenery holds me back as I plan a basic layout then just add more and more track. But on yours the scenery is doing a lot of the work to nestle the railway in and make it look more realistic.
@davidrigby79845 ай бұрын
Hi thanks for the comments, I had moments when I just didn't know how to get started with the scenery, I think you just need to make a start and then it just starts to come together, and yes get some nice hillside scenery added so it takes the attention away from what is a basic circuit of track. 👍
