New Modules US style

Hi Folks

no its time to start my next project:)

I have planned 4 module, both end will have the same plate as the Z-friend US division.
The two middle modules are for me to play in my cellar.

It shows a small yard in Flaggstone, near Flagstaff, Arizona.
There are 3 Industries who needs waggons, a junksyard, a oil (or gas) deposit and a warehouse.

The cyan track is the mainline, for the us with the us-division the module must be change the front side, so is the mainline in the back.
Here ist the trackplan, I will use the mircotrain tracks und turnouts.



The red tracks are Märklin, the grey parts are special modules for myself to play at home (or at an convention)

I will use only digital DCC (I have the Rautenhaus Control, so I cann use Sx and DCC together) to drive, the turnouts will be change with servos and manuel.

The last days I weatherd all my locos and waggons, see the pics in the gallery

Very nice plan! It looks like it's going to be loads of fun. Keep us updated on your progress.

Hi Jürgen

The first tracks are fixed on the 1. module.
These sides are the first who I describe it in german and in english (I hope it is correct, I use sometimes google translater)

Hi Jürgen, I like your modules plan. I t looks like you can have lots of fun operations, and lots of railcars on it. I wish Z-Bend Track had nice alignment plates like your modules have, to make setup more precise.

Good Job!! The Germans love the west and there are lots of modules of California and now Arizona..Maybe we can get the Rocky Mountains and then the Great Plains and then..I could hook up my Midwest modules!

Hi Kelly

I will change the teritorry from Arizona to Wiconsin or Missouri,
because UP is not in the North-Arizona Area and I will work together with Manfred.
We prefere the greener midwest (Manfred has a 45° curve and he use green gras
and grey rocks). And I / we have more severel Industries as in Arizona.

woohooo!..My Illinois will pass good right there!

Howdy folks

Now are alle parts to play in my cellar ready to testing.

Alle tracks on the modules (90%) are fixed and all the rolling stock must
drive all the ways to show whats happend.

Hi Juergen, I saw your web-site and I saw a DCC controller.
Which kind of DCC use?

Hi sky

I don´t have a DCC Controler, I use the Rautenhaus RMX System.
So I have Sx an DCC together in use.

I startet 2004 with Selectrix, System Rautenhaus. www.mdvr.de/ .
The newest is the RMX for both systems.
He updatet my old controler and change the central in March these year.
In Dortmund I was the "Testuser" , so I can told him the issues (Along the fair
they give me an new controler and so he updatet my controler (2. time)

Hi

its time for a update from my Modules.
In the last 2 month I fixed all the wires to the servos, coupler and so
Between the MTL tracks I filled it up with cork, all tracks are gravelled and paintet.

Now I can build some kits from Monrose Models and BAZ.
Also the background ist now in the correct size (it was made with the USA-DVD from JoWi).
