Different power on the Anna Lines - tomustang - 02-14-2011 Epaw graciously allowed me to come visit and run some items on his work in progress layout. Had a great time and started some records on his rails like a 86 car train and 40+ car backup over 6 turnouts Some of his locomotives have some serious pull to them! I'm glad I was able to test out more than half of my rolling stock and so far so good, just some coupler changes and wheel adjustments (not bad for some scratchbuilding and a couple of hack jobs ) Without further ado: This next one was a rough shot since 2 trains were moving More to come...

Thanks for sharing them, and thanks to e-paw for being such a gracious host. Re: Different power on the Anna Lines - nachoman - 02-14-2011 What a sweet layout for test-running! Re: Different power on the Anna Lines - Ralph - 02-14-2011 Wow! I am so envious of those big sweeping curves! A nice place to run trains and great equipment indeed! Ralph Re: Different power on the Anna Lines - cn nutbar - 02-14-2011 Tom---isn't it great to have gracious friends with beautiful train layouts---I can honestly say I know how you feel thanks to my good friend Doctor Wayne Re: Different power on the Anna Lines - Gary S - 02-14-2011 Holy cow! Now how is it that I never realized E-Paw had such a huge layout? And based on that one area with the scenery, this is gonna be a great layout! Way to go, E-Paw! Re: Different power on the Anna Lines - e-paw - 02-15-2011 Thanks for stopping Tom, I guess that little running session could be considered the layouts official opening . It really gave me a chance to test out my track work under some heavy use age. It also pointed out a few spots that need attention. BTW I weighed the 90MAC to see just how much ballast I added to it,,she comes in at 2.17 pounds . Thanks for stopping by. Re: Different power on the Anna Lines - Green_Elite_Cab - 02-16-2011 Looks good! I need that kind of space, and lighting! |
