Slapped some pieces of track down to see how they might fit.

Also trying to get used to dealing with photographs on new computer.

I learned the engine is connected with a 5 speed gearbox to the axles. I once rode on the Schienenbus from the ZLSM and I was absolutely charmed by the shifting of gears while getting up to cruise speed! It was like driving an old Mercedes!

My latest locomotive from Roundhouse Engineering. She’s a “Hercdog” a one-off special. She has received the name Elise:-

She will join the industrial fleet after her acceptance trials. Here she is on her maiden run.

the EG&SNNR is closed for the winter thought I'd better see if the recently acquired new RhB electric loco moves, lights up and makes the required noises etc.

All's going well, even looks good with the TEE unit although no chance with them meeting up in real life .... or on the EG&SNNR!

..and I've got one of them...…...

Here’s one type of the Tomytec trams

That is rather clever.. - Not come across them before.
Knew the name, but only in the context of chassis for other things.

As for the railway:
Ooooh! A 'BN' Caboose..

Ah, the Tomytec is Paul Rhb's post - either on the new tram thread or Max's 'little diversion' thread

John S quote - anything is possible, grey cells clunking away....may be able to use the mechanism from this, as a starting point.....

Dunnytram: the final listed option would be a good way of getting Cars from a single Depot lead out onto the complete line. Sadly Kato do not do Single Points. But it still works from the double point x the Depot.

I'll just leave these here.
