Good luck and keep us posted (with pictures especially of the 2-3-0...)

I am starting over in terms of track on my Bradford Pa centered pike, This time I am going with PECO.  I was in the process of constructing a MicroEngineering  layout, but just did not like the thin ties and long turnouts. I have small engines (2-3-0 's and small diesel switchers) and would benefit from using tighter turnouts.

Off we go again !

Lookin' forward to updates!

Have fun!

Yes. Keep us posted.  I went with Peko when I did my On30 Utacolzona layout and it has worked out great.  Just enjoy.    Dennis.

lol--2-6-0 and thanks everyone

The microscale track is now gone, I am making a few changes, extending a passing siding, etc, changing curves to 22 in radii...

I have obtained PECO track and switches; have started taking out the wiring on the bottom of the switches that messes with the DCC and ordered insulating rail joiners for the switches to make the new layout DCC friendly, it is coming along.....it certainly looks better to my eyes.....

taking the connecting wires out of the underside of the electrofrog switches....

How's the pike coming along?  Anything new to report (Any pictures)?

Dennis.

Definitely looking better with some additional changes coming up too.....

putting a few dwarf signals in Bradford to control movements in 2 sidings...

Meanwhile at "Bradford",...

the loco's have spark arrestors as there was a 6,000 acre fire along the railway( BB&K) in the early 1900's at Ormsby ...., two different types of arrestors are now in use. two 4-4-0's and two 2-6-0's

working on control boxes, using peco structures for the narrow gauge we will  switch cars in the refinery grounds in Bradford,

PICTURES! WE NEED PICTURES!

It sounds like your layout would be wonderful to see.

I would sure like to see some photos,

I am thinking of doing a On3 logging layout and need ideas and guidance.

I agree, photos please!

ooops,sorry about the duplicates, there was a lag and I re-sent

Very nice looking engines and structures!! 

Leg Lamp in the window ? 

of course, ralphie's house

thank all of you   Happy New Year!

I am trying out On3 couplers and some Evolution couplers, going to try replace all of my couplers for appearance and for operation.
