In this video I visit the Z Bend Rail club which is a huge Z Scale layout featuring animated cars and trucks. Please note that the animated cars are not Faller. The system was custom built by a member using a bicycle chain system.
I'm pleased to announce that Dakman Productions has now joined the Trainz partnership program for the long term. You get $10 off any purchase from Trainz by using the Dakman code.

With VERY limited space for a layout in my home, Z scale seems ideal - even HO layouts I’ve tried to fit in are just too limited in what I can achieve in track length / interest / realism. Nice video 👍

Just keep in mind some of the Z scale trains can be very expensive.

It's hard to believe that this is Z scale with all the detail. Are the cars/trucks animated in situ or only on the video?

@Dakman 8 месяцев назад

Those vehicles are really animated on a custom built track by a club member using a magnet system

What are those two cars at 5:13? I would love to try to get the corsair one

@randysmidt1976 8 месяцев назад

Those cars were scratchbuilt by the late Fred Ladd, a former club member. I believe he used a micromachines toy for the Corair.

Hey, what is the manufacturer of that first NYC steam loco? I need to snag one to repaint to recreate the B&O Royal Blue train

@randysmidt1976 8 месяцев назад

That is a Marklin 21st Century Ltd.

@randysmidt1976 8 месяцев назад

And the passenger cars are from AZL

That sure looked like 'N' to me... Not one time was there any indicator or reference point for actually seeing/realizing the smallness of the 'Z' scale... Even the far off shots closing in on the landscape looked 'N' to

The very beginning of the video shows the club sign which is Z Bend Track. A great Z scale club. Everything was recorded with my cellphone using certain settings to make sure viewers could see the trains. I can assure you that the trains in this video are definitely Z scale.

Hey guys, so I wanna get a train, I blame railfan channels on RU-vid, and now video's like this.

@Dakman 11 месяцев назад

That's great you want to get into the model train hobby because of RU-vid Channel videos. All you have to do is figure out what scale is good for you and go from there. Get a basic set and learn as you go. For example if you decide on HO trains, you can get a basic Bachmann set and grow gradually into DCC controls and higher end HO such as Athearn, Scale Trains and Atlas.

the train shop that i go to only deals with H/O scale & O-scale ... they don't waste their time with bull-shitte scales !! ... (fixing it is more expensive than a brand new unit) ...(go figure)

the thing I found about modeling in Z scale is that when you work on larger scales, they aren't that much of a challenge, you develop "z eyes". For a small scale though, you start craving wider curves rather than trying to squeeze as much as you can into a small space..
