Miniature Model Railroad 9" x 5" running a train and trolley

[Midiguana]

wow people are stupid! I would have guessed it was even more expensive than $650. sometimes small doesnt mean less expensive obviously it would be far more difficult to build in this scale there fore costing more>>>>>Really nicely done!

How on earth are these put together?

[twdtinytrains]

A drive belt inside the track pulls the train and trolley around the track. All is hand assembled! Thanks!

This is a most exquisite piece of engineering and you need to be applauded for it. The speed of the trains is terrific and the scenery is just great. Totally well done, you.!! A credit to the railway modelling fraternity.

How does the train cross over it's track if it's all on a belt?

[twdtinytrains]

The train and trolley are at opposite ends of a section/strip of belt, which is timed just right as it is handed between two drive motors.

wow....thats crazy!! great job!

[UnionPacificRules]

amazing dude jus amazing! is it smaller than Z-scale?

[twdtinytrains]

Yes, it is 1:900 scale, which is about 4 times smaller than Z scale.

How.....

[twdtinytrains]

A drive belt inside the track is handed between two drive motors. The train is attached to the drive belt at one end and the trolly is at the other end. They are attached by a clear tab to the drive belt through a thin slit in the middle of the track.
