Hey John:

I love photo's, don't we all.

John, Fox Run and Sewell's look wonderful in their location on the layout.  Very Impressive !!


I am also most interested in how you will be using and mounting your servo motors for the turnouts.   I have been considering doing the same and would like to use the servos with a bell-crank type alignment (as opposed to 'direct' type wire as in the tortoise type alignment) as my turnouts are currently in place.    Looking forward to seeing what you do there.


Thanks and again great work in all you are doing on the S&S RR !!

John,

The scene in the above photo is wonderful. Lots of nice structures with lots of track in the foreground. Well done my friend.

Thank you - I can't wait to get the track all detailed and the scenery in to frame the structures.

Thank you for following along and the kind words. It will look a lot better when I get the track in foreground all detailed.

Thank you for the kind words.


I will be using the servo system that Barrett Hill sells. The configuration will be a little different on each of turnouts in this area.  I have some that will be right beside the track with the servo motor covered by a small shed, some will have long wires that attach to the servo motor at an angle underneath the layout, and some will be controlled from the side with the servo motor mounted in the facia.  Stay tuned, I will take pictures as I install them and get them running.
