  1. It is indeed a fine mesh netting. And it survived also heavy snow a few weeks ago.
  2. So, have finally solved the problem that the trees constantly throwing around leaves, flowers and seeds.
  3. More catenary poles, fake stones and fake grass.
  4. Do they also sell their rail profiles individually? Because at least where I use and will use Code 75 profiles (Peco, Weinert mein Gleis etc.) there are already individual sections where I would think about using them. They probably don't have Code 83 profiles...
  5. What's DCC Concepts new legacy track?
  6. I'm on your side in that case... ðŸĶ -->ðŸŠĶ
  7. The pigeon is still alive? ðŸđðŸđðŸđðŸđðŸđðŸđ
  8. Hello folks! Since with the bankruptcy of Digikeijs the only supplier I know of of decoders that could handle the old Peco PL-10 and PL-11 solenoid drives has gone away AND I can't get Hornby's R8247 to run with the Z21, I have a real fat problem. Do any of you have a tip on R8247 or can say something about Gaugemaster's DCC33 decoder? Because now I have little desire to have to solder together a total of 65 switching current amplifiers from 130 relais. Edit says: It seems I found the solution for my problems with the new YAMORC YD8008 Solenoid Decoder. Yuhuuuuu! Regards Thomas
  9. "Should I have placed a little grease on them before covering?" Definitely yes! Have used grease from the fishing supply myself.
  10. So, the last gap of the old main line closed. If the bridge from Italy would come now, I could finish the track construction outdoor. If.... Replaced one of the three box bridges in a row with a concrete bridge open on top. Reason: much better accessibility for cleaning the rails.
  11. Hello! No, I will not put up catenary wire. Only put up poles. Regards Thomas
  12. So that the catenary can withstand the cats.... Part 2.

  14. The garden side tunnel portals of the passage into the house are finally finished. Only the catenary poles are still missing.
  15. Because of the great heat here in the Palatinate (39.5°C today), progress is slow. The middle section of the bridge is modern. In reality, this was the case with the bridge I chose as a model, because the middle section was hit by British Grand Slam bombs in 1944 (at least 3 years too late if you ask for my opinion 😉 ) After that, there are 4 more arches that I have to mount tomorrow.
  16. Since I no longer expect my bridge from the USA to arrive in the foreseeable future, I will close the gap for the time being with a combination of arch bridge and prestressed concrete. It is based on the Schildesche Viaduct near Bielefeld. The bridge will be made of 10mm Styrodur, later aligned at the installation site and filled with concrete.
  17. Hello Mick! I no longer dare to predict when I will have the layout finished. ðŸĪ·ðŸ˜… Regards Thonas
  18. I use them, they work well.
  19. Hello together! I wanted to give you a sign of life from me again. At the moment I'm finishing the wiring of the layout with the 10 boosters. I've also reached the last level indoors. With kind regards Thomas
