Welcome everyone! Some basic rules: 1. Feel free to post photos, but please police yourselves on how much memory you take up. 2. Feel free to add links, the first one is my other Yahoo group

Greetings to John and the rest of the group members! I am Mark from Colonie, and I am looking forward to learning a lot more about N-trak and model railroading. In my lifetime I have built (but

Hi Mark, Mike here, one of the best things about N-Trak is you can model anything you wish. The scene you invision of Hogwarth's express sounds interesting. Within N-Trak there are several variations

Geoff is now also a moderator of the group. If someone has a new prospect to invite to the group, you can send the email address to Geoff or I

John, Thanks for setting this up this Y! Group. Hi John and/or Geoff, May I suggest adding the following link to our links page? http://home.alltel.net/ah50902/index.htm That rather long url is

I added the Bendtrak link, thanks. I think you guys can add links directly, please keep them on topic, but feel free to add. Geoff, when you get a chance could you please add the three websites?

Thanks for the advice Mike. I used to receive the N-Trak Newsletter, but that was MANY years ago. However, I did go to the N-Trak site and subscribe to the newsletter, as well as ordering the

Doug and I are discussing a schedule to construct the modules. We should start getting an idea of what else is needed to construct the modules beside lumber and members should start getting together

I like the orange, red, yellow and blue for the fact that we can have a small double dog bone layout if the end loops are avelable like we had in Fishkill. Is the mountian division being considered? I

Hi, all. As for new corners, I feel the four main lines are a "must have". The mountain division would be a nice addition, as there are a couple of members who would want it and it would give us the

I think that Ed's suggestion for the mountain division is an excellent one. I realize that we have mixed feelings about the mountain division, but since there are a few members using it (not me, at

With the mountian division there is a possability of running DCC with out interfering with the blue, yellow, red and orange. Just food for thought. Ed

Hi, I hope everyone had a nice weekend. John and I drove out to Syracuse to the train show and had a great day. We were able to check out a few 3 foot corners other clubs had at the show. We also

Doug, I'll get the track & wire. I picked up five pieces of flex track and cork roadbed at J.P.'s today, and have some speaker wire. Just to confirm how much I'll need to buy, are we making two

Brain Thank you for helping out and yes we are building two. We may also need 4 rights and 4 left turnouts depending on the group decision on transition capability. Please keep all receipts and

Brain H. has offered to pick up track and wiring for the corner mods. Thanks Brain. We still need to hear from the group on making the corner mods capable of being transition corners. Thanks

I called them trainsision mods but I ment juction mods it's been a long day! Thanks Doug

Doug, At Poughkeepsie and Kingston (and maybe other shows, we sometimes ran a "two track" branch line off one of Mike Lacasse's corner/junction modules. At the end of the "two track" branch line was

My vote would be to NOT make the corners into junctions. Having them be junctions does two things - it makes them not fit the N-Trak standard for track radius, and (from what I read in other

I have nearly finished an adapter module that will let us go from the outer main to T-Trak modules forming a "T" with the main N-Trak layout. My plan is that it will be reversible, so the T-Trak
