N Gauge Shelf Project.wmv

My latest attempt at railway modelling. It's not very professional but it was a lot of fun putting it together. It still isn't finished - but then what model railway ever is?! I hope you enjoy the video.

cost of it all?

@HaloXIIII Spread over a period of time, quite a bit. Locos and rolling stock can be pricey but the card built buildings were cheap enough and a lot of fun building. Scenic background was a country shot from the internet! I just flipped the image horizontally and printed. The ends always matched up!

1. Can the Southwest Trains unit be coupled to another set?

2. What type of track do you use?

[Bobcatonline]

@Amtrak1194 Yes, the Southwest trains can be coupled to another set - but be sure the motors in each set are pulling the same way! I use N gauge bog standard flexitrack. Hope that helps.

@MrMat063 The only vehicles that are Oxford die cast are the two buses, a delivery van and a van with a ladder on the roof. Coaches and a lot of the cars and lorries are Japanese. Thanks for your comments. I seldom use ballast on the track because I'm scared of jamming up the points!
