Building for an N Scale train layout?

Howard - Thank you. Yes. I’m going to make a handful of them for a small display. I enjoyed the challenge and am really happy with how it came out.

I took the locomotive apart this weekend and got it working properly. The missing cosmetic parts are on their way.

Very nice. It looks great as it is. What are the cosmetic parts that are missing? Your church in the background fits beautifully.

Lucy - Thank you. The side frames are missing from the rear truck of the locomotive. There is a rail and a coupler missing from the caboose.

Love the minis! Great work!! I used to have an N scale when I was growing up, they are so fun.

WOW so small! And you want to make a whole village, I will be on the lookout.

Wow, this is beautiful. Such precision. Did you use regular chipboard or something lighter in weight since it is so small? Debbie

Thank you Debbie. I used scraps from the larger projects. I experimented using thinner material but, it was harder to build with in my opinion. Your mileage may vary there. I wouldn't rule it out.
