I've spent today testing my rolling stock on the new layout, the #3Dprinted Furness railway coach exceeded expectations and ran very well on the 3rd radius track. With no derails. I'll have footage of the 2 pack running soon. #modelrailway

I finally got my first basic layout set up. Now I can start running my engines and testing out my #3Dprinted rolling stock. This is a little video from my first running session so please excuse the video quality. This is the train that came with the set. #modelrailway

If anyone has any 6 wheel coaches in 00 gauge, could you tell me how they run on the track and furthermore what is the minimum radius that they will run on? So far the coach is just about running on 3rd radius. Many thanks in advance :)

Brookster3D @brookster3d.bsky.social · 3d

Here's some of the first prints of my #3Dprintable Furness coaches. I'm not too happy with the outcome. The coach seems a little overscale somehow, and its taking a lot of work to get the coach to sit on even the widest radius track due to the wide wheelbase. Still a lot of work to do. #modelrailway

This shot shows the interior of the coach from a bird's eye view. The roof has been removed to show 5 compartments, each with two seats at each end facing towards each other.

This shot shows a side view of the coach. The 6 wheel arrangement can be seen from here.

Side shot shows the backside of the coach, steps up to the roof along with a railing are positioned on one of the ends. Buffers and coupling hook are not yet printed as this is just a prototype.

I bought some plywood to start my layout and, in my mighty wisdom, I didn't comprehend how I was going to get it into the house... So its outside until I can cut it XD #modelrailway

75 Years Ago TODAY the Talyllyn Railway Preservation Society was formed. Following this, on the 14th May 1951 the TRPS ran their first train kick starting the global railway preservation movement as the World’s First Preserved Railway.

I work in retail, I hate when people walk away the minute they heard the beep and you have to chase them down. I think people should have the same mentality that teachers have to the end of school bell. The beep is not for you! The beep is to tell US to tell YOU when you can leave XD

Just finished watching "Oh, Mr porter" for the first time, very good film especially if you are a railway lover, but now I'm fixated on getting an A4 "Silver Link" locomotive model XD

Took my kids out for a visit at the club’s weekend event. They loved the duel gauge brewery layout.

Got an invitation to pull trains on it when everything’s been tested!
