I started a new group for those interested in doing some z t-trak modules. It is at http://groups.yahoo.com/group/zttrak . If you know of any proposed...
Don: ... We use curved needle nose pliers to gently pull the expansion track rails out of the rail joiner (which stays with the stationary track). Pull one...
Hi All: It hasn't gone unnoticed that a LOT of Z-Bend Track folks are starting to paint their track and ties/sleepers. And it REALLY looks good. However, it...
I only use the 70% alcohol even though I have 90 and 100% available to me, unless it is unpainted. Many in our group use Rail Zip ( the pink stuff) which says...
Hi All: The new webpage for Nn3 standards (http://www.nvntrak.org/nn3/) gives some passing credit to the Z-Bend Track standard for the interface between...
... If you idea is for a flat and level figure 8, you'll have to work with Peter Wright (http://www.wrightturnouts.com) to get a crossover made up for you. ...
A figure of eight plan would require either an over-and-under crossing or a 90 degree crossing which has been designed by Peter Wright and works very well....
I am glad I asked about the 20 x 30. I was going to use the 20 x 30 inch board for another project, but starting thinking a z scale would work. I go with plan...
We have finished a ONLINE VIDEO segment that features Eric Smith, President of Micro-Trains Lines. This one is exclusively targeted to the Z scale community...
For those in need of 8592 expansion tracks at a reasonable price, I found some posted on eBay. See item number 6034041223 (just copy that number into the...
Bill Thanks for the heads up. I grabbed all 6 of what he had availible. More modules. tommorrow the soldering station. You create a great big money pit...

Ed, others ... Well, you are still in luck. There is another post (same seller) tonight for 30 more expansion tracks, 28 of which are still left at 9:40pm...
And note the price this storefront has on the Dutch ICE Train. Holy cow, I'm going to have to get one of those. Oh, and he has manual turnouts for $8.50 ...
He's always had GREAT deals. We've bought close to 100 of the turnouts for our club , solar sets for $225, you name it. He's beyond a power dealer. If you...
Dear Bryan: I wouldn't recommend the Dutch ICE unless you really feel you need to have it. It is not the easiest thing to put together, and doesn't run as...
Randy I only have two ballon end modules (14 & 15 inch radi). Both are in rework right now. I couldn't run trains reliably on the track work as originally...
Dave, Bryan has run my ICE train, and knows what he is up against. Mine was reworked by the Stiskas ( they work wonders on these sets) and runs great. I'm...
Ed, I'll be commuting. I only live about a half hour from the show. A year and a half ago, I lived about 3 1/5 miles from the Expo Center. Randy Edward...
I need to paint some ID marks on some of my rolling stock and locos before an upcoming show (with three different Z displays and an Nn3 display). I would like...
PACKER COLORS - that's great. Glad to see some of the WIZkidZ magic rubbed off on you. How about "The Hills are alive... Hope all goes well with NTS 2006. I...
