Large Scale Central

Romocomaka RR up and running

Just wanted to let you know, the Romocomaka RR is up and running, 1 week ahead of schedule. Over 1900’ of track to run and operate on. There are two reverse loops, but, to keep things simple, they have not been wired to allow for operation with track voltage. We offer Linear voltage on the tracks, operated by hand held throttles (R/C), all lines double fused.
If you want to come and run, contact me at my e-mail. We can handle at least 7 different operators (using track and battery operation).
We’re in the woods, so bug spray might be in order.
We’re located in Orange County, NY, in the heart of the beautiful Horse Country of the Mid Hudson part of New York.

Congratulations!!!

Great to hear Noel. Pics even of the country are always oogled here :slight_smile: :slight_smile:

We love pictures :smiley:
Here’s Bruce Chandler’s tutorial on posting pictures here at LSC.

Sweet!! 1900’ !!
Yep with the others …WE NEED PICTURES!

I will get some pix as soon as I can. Please don’t be disappointed, as it is a work in progress and all I have is a layout, scenery is non-existent, hope to start adding it when all of the bugs are worked out. Needless to say, once I do post pix, any suggestions for making it more interesting will be appreciated.
BTW, I did run 4 trains on the inside loop today, two on track power and two on battery power. Ran them 1 minute apart, and it worked out well.
Thank you for your comments.

Noel

Thank you.
I’m using a MAC, has anybody done as good a job explaining how to do this with a MAC?
I can probably hoof it through, but if somebody has already done it I may be able to keep what little bit is left in my mind.

Noel

Congrats Noel. I will have to take a ride up since Im so close to you.

Hi Shawn,
Sounds good.
Weekends are better for me, as my sked during the week is confusing, at best.

Noel

Here’s some pix (I hope)http://www.lscdata.com/dirlist.php?id=noelahttp://www.lscdata.com/dirlist.php?id=noelahttp://www.lscdata.com/dirlist.php?id=noelahttp://www.lscdata.com/dirlist.php?id=noelahttp://www.lscdata.com/dirlist.php?id=noelahttp://www.lscdata.com/dirlist.php?id=noela

Hmmmmm.
Don’t know what’s going on, by I don’t see a file name for the jpeg.
Jon Radder can probably look at your post and tell us what you did wrong.
Be patient, Noel. We’ll have you posting pictures eventually :wink:
Ralph

Thanks Ralph,
I just joined the $20 thing, maybe that will help.

Noel

Noel, if you lived in Orange County, Calif., I’d bring a train over! Congratulations on the golden spike. I’ve had my track down five years and have just gotten serious about scenery!

Doug,
Do you run a Mac? Noel needs some help with photos.
Ralph

Doug,
Thank you, would have enjoyed the visit. Orange County, CA is also beautiful. Perhaps it’s something int he name?

This is the upper loop and main freight yard

This is the walkway to access the inside of the middle loop

This is the middle and lower loops

This is the walkway into the middle loop, the stuff on the right is the area where the sun always shines, creating some expansion problems

This is the entire layout, upper loop, middle loop, and lower loop

Thats awesome!!!

Very cool.
Both the RR as well as having the pictures working :wink:
Ralph

That is one nice layout.
And Ralph is right. I’m on a Mac so if you do need ayt help drop me a note but I think you posted just fine.

And you are in a pretty Orange County!

Really nice Noel. Looks like some nice running
