Nice model that is. I have never ever had O gauge before in my life but I am liking on what I see here and in the future. I will have an O Gauge Garden Railway.
Hi Gwion, what a superb idea. I just picked up a set for a mate who's building a small modular layout. Great stuff. I've subscribed and will be watching more products with interest. Check out my Dean Park layout. All the best. Dave
Fantastic idea. Patent it if you haven’t already. I’m just beginning to consider a shelf layout which will go around the house and therefore need several module sections in the guise of bridges and I think these will be just the ticket.
Gwion, I've been installing the HO aligners onto my layout. As the layout is modular and multi level and the room has two access doors, I have a challenge. The first things I have learnt are, don't install a joint on a curve in flexi track.!!!! Unless you Solder and secure the curve before cutting the rails. Far better is to place a section of set track at the postion of the joint. Then cut and postion the Modeltech aligner. There is none of the spring and tension that comes with flexitrack. Great product, thanks.
I'd Love to bring these to the club I'm with and advertise them. Really cool. I just finished creating a modular setup with my long N scale layout. Had to cut it in half and use copper board segments on the rails where the edges are. This product would have come in handy! Very nice. Let me know !
Well done on starting your own business with your own products. Not easy to do that, this is very impressive. I will keep an eye out, as I have my own 00 layout.
It's a little tricky, but you put a flat head screwdriver between the chassis and the body at the rear and lever off the body, the rear light lenses are all that holds it in.
Thanks , for showing a good example of presenting some model railroad products and I hope to export some of my own products to the U K soon COOL ! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Hi, I can see on your website you now have a Z gauge aligner, it says it's compatible with Peco Z gauge Track. Are they compatible with Marklin Mini-club Z gauge?.......thanks
The only reason why I just don't like the model train way or car system hobby is that smooth stopping and starting has never been done to a point I find acceptable. There seems to be no way to actually make a train or car start and stop with realistic smoothness. Or at least I could not find one single video about it. I am still hoping to find one.
Hi Gwion. I remember the great innovations you developed for The Great Model Railway Challenge. These products look excellent and of high quality, so will be ordering some today. I hope your new business is very successful, and look forward to more products in the future. Best wishes, Chris
Nice going Gwion. I'd wondered if you were going to be doing these again. I will be in touch! Small question... are you doing longer pieces to cope with curves running between two boards?
Looks like an awesome product! So if I'm not mistaken, the USA Code 83 (RAU16001) version really is what I should use for any and all US track modeling due to the sleeper (tie) spacing, right? Even code 100 US track? I ask because from what I can tell, Atlas for example, makes flex track in both code 100 and code 83 which both have the same tie spacing. The height of the rail is the only difference caused by the code, sleepers (ties) remain the same distance apart regardless of code, which seems to be closer together than all OO sleeper spacing... If this is the case, it might make sense to give the RAU16001 a slightly different name than "USA Code 83" just to prevent US code 100 from modelers from buying the "standard" RAS16001 by mistake, thinking the rail code is the driver, rather than the tie/sleeper spacing which is based mostly on each country's actual railway building standards
I am just about to fit sound to my loco the same as yours, did you have to cut out to put the speaker up the front as my has so little space inside the loco?
Hi Gwion, I saw these in a recent edition of Model Railway mag - had to try them, so I've ordered a set from a supplier in UK who ships to Australia. I reckon these are literally a game changer for so many of us who have to life/separate track on our layouts. Finally, someone has come up with an idea to make re-joining track easier. I can't wait to get my set installed. Good luck with your business, I hope you get an Australian retailer on board. Best wishes, Angus.
