One of my emails has gone into cyberspace...this is a repost. Hi Guys,
>>>> Received your posts. Tony, I will answer in detail tonight, as well as >>>> post a couple of photos that I took last night. Sounds good I am allways up for a good steam challenge...we will get it sorted! I model in mainly shortline off beat stuff in 16mm scale on 32mm Gauge track..."O" scale track...which works out to 2' gauge in the real world. It is a real wet cold blowy day here on Vancouver Island...there is a big blow coming down the coast out of Alaska...it does not make much of a day to be out side so thought you might like to see some pics sit back and have a warm brew...I am. I have attached a couple of pics and a link to my railroad "The Gritty Oyster" under snow. Because the gauge is "O" I run "O" Scale days...old tinplate and Lionel...yes Lionel...great to see a growling F7 pulling a huge string of cars...I run them on those battery packs that the kids use for there model off road dune buggy toys. I made up a transistorised throttle and on a 15 minute charge the lionels will run for over an hour...the AC motors in them love the DC...The Double headed Bassett-Lowke belongs to my friend Bob Walker...love the sound of the tinplate rattling through the great outdoors. http://www.theoaks.ca/wintergor.htm Not sure how this board works...you may have to highlite the web address and paste it in your browser...cause I think the plain text formating of these emails removes the linking...but give it a try...now back to my warm brew.
