bob_moody Posted May 18, 2016 Share Posted May 18, 2016 Well... Sandra and I took the plunge into a yard train. Simple oval .. 4 corners, 48' on the long straight and 32' on the shorter straight. Started in January and this is where we are with it now .. http://moodychristmas.weebly.com/yard-train.html a lot of pictures and a couple of videos... We are not finished yet... but finally at a point where we can show a little of what we have done so far. Bob 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bob_moody Posted May 19, 2016 Author Share Posted May 19, 2016 The Loco and the caboose are both lighted. there might be a ride along on the flat car that will change colors and chase ... (I have several Arduino and Parallax boards and chips... I can make something dazzle the tots... ) Bob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
