Thomas,
I think that I have purchased the same. I got a Board to digitise Marklin analogue Signals. They make all of the above also.

Look at this Ebay item and go to the store. You will see all there.

I will PM with Email address.
Very reasonably priced.

Also see the Viessman equivalents half the price of M .

Nev,

Thank you for the PM, have it all now.

Hi Thomas,

Thanks for your reply! What i can do is ask my friend when he is running the next purchase cycle if he also is willing to sell towards the States, I'am not sure yet about that. For the moment he has done recently a purchase cycle for the Marklin 3Rail forum in the Netherlands and Belgium. He is doing it just as a "railroad friends gesture" so he's not commercial or so. (no website)

Tell me if your still interested.

Ok, that's fine. Little remark: I've looked on the website but it is other hardware then I use. But if it works fine then it's Ok!

Hi Rutger,

Can you explain what all the different colored wires are for? Just curious as I am starting wiring phase on my layout and want to learn more about this approach.

I had only though of running red, brown, yellow (separate transformer) but you have something more complex going.

Thanks!

Hi John,

I also learned this from other train modelers, so I decided to build direct from the start extra power lines. The colors I used are just the standard colors as they are available on the Dutch market. It's all 2,5mm/2 massive cupper wire

As follow:
- Yellow/Green - Brown = Red - Brown for normal drive current coming from the CS2
- Yellow/Green - Blue = separated transformer for all lights: houses, lantern, switch lights; so it's a "plus and min" wire. Coming from a non Marklin transformer.
- Yellow/Green - Black = spare set of wires for additional Boosters or other purposes in the future

Hope this makes sense for you?
Regards,
Rutger

Perfect sense :)

I was a bit thrown off by all the different yellow/green but I see how it works now. Good planning. Now I just need to locate some 2mm wire here in various colors.

Hello All,

So, the Railspiral is on it's place. I guess that the declination is a little more than 3% but it should be manageable by the Loc's. when the electronics frame is open, it is possible to reach the Rail spiral from inside.
UserPostedImage

A few pieces of rails in place to check how it fits all together. Next is to make little borders to prevent the train fall from the Rail spiral.

Most of the time, spirals have "rounded" shape. Yours is very unusual with a "hexagonal" shape! Did you have a specific reason, or was it easier to cut the wood that way? I like the little border to prevent trains from falling. Keep up the good work, Rutger!

Hi Ranjit,

Thanks for your reply, appreciated!

The reason I choose this design is:
1) it cost less material instead of using a lot of wood plates to get the circles of the same size out of it.
2) it is easier to cut the wood, you can make plenty of these hexagonal shapes
3) it is easy to build a large spiral, you can go on and on if you want.

The idea comes from Rainer Lussi: http://www.stayathome.ch/gleiswendel.htm

Enjoy!

Rutger

Hi Rutger,

Very nice spiral! It looks very well built.

I have a question. On 31 January 02:16:47 you have posted a picture showing track laid and then at 17:55:31 another picture where wooden edges have been added.
First a remark, the edges add to the stability and it reduces the risk that trains would fall to the floor in case de-railing, which is very good.
Second the question, when looking at how close to the edge of the board the track was laid in your earlier posting, I wonder if you have checked with long passenger coaches that they won't hit the wooden edges, added in the picture of the second posting?

Hi,

Yes,I understand what you mean. It also keeps me busy so before I mounted the borders I did a test with a 'simulated' border:
UserPostedImage
There is approx. 4mm space between the coach and the border, a check on the Dutch forum learned that it should be enough.

That clearance looks quite OK! And if your models are based on continental gauge, then it wouldn't be any problem in the future. I had an old layout where I had built everything for 24 cm coaches and it was quite a task to modify it to also allow 27 cm coaches.

When I get to the building phase of my new layout I'll do lots of test similar to what your photo shows, even though I wouldn't use a "Schürzenwagen", which I believe your's is, based on the roof design. I'd have to use one of my Roco models of SJ A7 or B7 coaches since the Swedish gauge is larger than the continental and the models are also wider and taller than for instance a Eurofima coach - as they should be.

I'll look forward to read more about your layout in the future.

Very nice work. I do not want to sound negative but it seems to be to me an allfull lot
of exacting work that can be accomplished much easier with wood. What are the benefits with using metal? Solid yes, but no more permanent in a household environment.

Now, I understand we each have our own way of doing things so please let me know what your goals are.

Hi,

If you look on my website on page http://www.derangeerbaan...el/02-personen-rijtuigen you're able to see which type it is.

Watch my website, I will update it when I made progress, and also give a post on the forum.

Hello Eric,

You're not negative but honest. So there are a few reasons that I choose for this way of building with metal:
1- Just fun, I can work well with wood, no problem, but did never do some welding and I'am fascinated by the process of welding.
2- it is cheaper if you do not taken into account the costs of the welding equipment
3- you have to do more design work before you can start, but if you want to make a large railplan with wood you have to design that also. In the end I think it's comparable.
4- the frame is less massive en you've more space for the trains
6- I have a garage were I can do the welding, and in the end a nice painted and clean frame enters the household environment.
5- bear in mind that you can change it by mounting new parts with bolts and nuts.


I made now my second frame module, and I did already less design work and more of the top of my head, based on the experience of the first module. My feeling is that it is a little more work then making it from wood.

Cheers,
Rutger

The top plate is now ready regarding the main work. The measurement in Wintrack differs from reality, so I take over the real measurement.

Very impressive!

Since I'm planning to build a spiral myself, I was wondering:

"what do you consider the minimal radius in a spiral?"

I'm in doubt to use the 424.6 mm (K 2231) or the 553.9 mm (K2241) radius as a inner curve. Im a fraid a too narrow inner curve will result in a too steep gradient (> 3%) which can't be handled by a lo'with 6 30.2 cm coaches.

Whats your opinion?

For the inner track on the spiral I used R2 (C Track 478mm Radius) and R3 on the outer (510mm R). I calculated the distances so as I had approximately 2.5% on the upward (Outer) track. I am having no problems. R3 with 95MM between levels will give you about 3%.

May I ask a question. If a 24172 or 24188 were added every 180 degrees of the circle to lengthen the run would that reduce the degree of incline?

Robert, I have a 500mm Straight between the end radii and have a 100-100mm Rise and about 2.5% on outer track.
1020 DIa gives 3213mm so overall circuit is 4200 and at 2.5% = 105 rise..

I should have made some comments earlier.
My layout is Steel frame. 50X25mm Steel.
the table has 3 layers. the bottom purely item storage. middle layer Hidden Station 18 Sidings.
Topo . the running area. approx 3 sheets if 12.5 mm Plywood per layer.

we estimate the weight to be close to 300 Kilos.

4 M X 1.750m
It is awesome.

Did you take the section outside before you used the grinder?

Preferably not, because this section exists of 2 parts to enable it going down via the stairs....
I will take a large blanket(s) to protect the floor and the surrounding and then use the grinder.
It are just 2 small weldings....

Rutger

Welded frame adjustment done today. Finally it was easy to remove the pipe.

Well, we know that there's one layout frame that will not warp!

Fantastic job.

Hi Gents,

Thanks for all your reactions!! Yes, this frame will not warp!!
But the frame has a little warp due to the welding....;-)))...so I've made
corrections in the wood to overcome the higth differences.

Regards,
Rutger
