That is amazing Kenny, I am building some trackwork at the moment and that is bad enough, in T scale it must be insane
Very well guessed there. Yep the track work was/is a far bigger challenge than I had expected. My fault really.
There are basically 2 different types of track. 1) set track which is fixed 60mm lengths and various radius curves, clip together very easily.
I got a loop with the starter set to get my head around things......but have not used it on the layout.
I went for 2) flexi track, purely as it looks more realistic and lends itself to ballasting, also the lengths you can buy go up to one metre, which is a long way with a T loco. I used a mixture of 200mm, 500mm, 750mm and 1 metre sizes.
This decision did make the job a million % more difficult I now realise. I scrapped a lot of track and track connectors, and at 6 quid plus postage for a tiny pack of 4 miniscule connectors the costs built up. I was not really worried about the cost as much as supplies of these spares. With only 2 agents they are always out of stock from Japan, which kills the job.
As you'll know as you form flexi track in to a curve one rail "grows", so they need snipping to make them equal to fit connectors. Tricky but you get used to it in a way, straight runs were a doddle.
Other huge and what was my main ball ache was this flexi track objects to being flexi. It really does want to straighten itself out all of the time.
I'd read about this issue before I started.
With it being so tiny and fragile you can't use track pins, so are left with the only options of gluing or double sided tape to hold it in place.
So, you make a connection on a curve, loco runs well, you return a while later and the track has forced itself out of the tiny brass connector.........nightmare.
I took to sweating the joints together at the end of the build on some curves, especially the inner point to point track.
I'd line rails up, run the solder down them and adjust them before solder went hard. It worked very well indeed.
Just waiting for some springs to arrive now, then I can finish the rebuild of the loco I posted a pic of and get both lines working at the same time..........I hope. Cheers
