I bought a Mehano train set nor knowing what I was getting myself into its used and I need the front part of the boiler and I can't find parts

I would like to modify it to be more like the season 1 thomas I've always wanted my own replicas of tje engines from the show.

Been thinking about making a childhood dream come to life I've been wanting to create the original Thomas and friends in g scale which as a lot of people know was the original scale that Thomad and friends started off in befor CGI so my question is has anybody made the g scale thomas the tank engine into the original season 1?

Been working on some 1/25 scale model cars and a new diorama idea came to mind but it involves using narrow gauge engine and I was wondering for true narrow gauge trains is there narrow gauge track? Like 3ft. Gauge compared to standard gauge trains? And if there is would I have to make it or could I get the track and locomotive from somewhere?

That's actually not a bad idea I'm gonna hit the drawing board I might have an idea for the benchwork but I could use that thanks for the idea

I actually like the micromark track and specifically the price.

Does anyone make their own track like maybe from Atlas HO flex track been trying to figure out how modelers get that accurate spacing.

I agree the 2x6 looks amazing but unfortunately I am not able to have that kinda space but is something I would like to implement into my layout and I may actually have more space since my shelf in my room is gonna have to be moved to the other side of the room.

Could you by chance post an example?

You gave a couple good ideas and I may have another track plan in mind. Thank you

I read some stuff in model railroader and one man had made a critter out of a Bachmann DCC equipped diesel  (probably spelt that wrong) chassis. But other than that I have no idea who would sell ready to run critters

I'm looking to build a... well really small layout I'm lucky to have about a foot by 4 feet of space but at the age of seventeen working at Taco Bell I would like to make a small budget layout I could possibly expand overtime so with this in mind I'm exploring several scales I'm a big detail freak building model cars as well as mine shafts and densely wooded areas not looking for realism but am looking for something interesting for people tonlook at. And I'm having problems making a layout design so am reaching out and asking for help from expert modelers on this forum. Thank you for your time

I'm currently wanting to model trains and rolling stock from ww1 I want to do the Tracks to trenches railway but I'm having problems it's 2 ft. Gauge and I want to model in in Large scale so my question is would Ho scale track count as 2 ft. Gauge and I could use On30 rolling stock as a base for my rolling stock or would the track width be wider or smaller than that in 2ft. Gauge?

I planned on using Atlas track I've had a catalog while back when I was thinking about doing an HO scale garden railroad and it said that HO tracks could be indoor or outdoor. Thank you for your input it helped a lot

I've heard before of g scale garden railroads and o gauge I would like to know if it is possible to run an on30 outdoor railroad as I don't really have room in my house
