Today I hacked at my MoW module to bring it into conformance with the T-Trak standards. The first track has to be 38mm in from the front edge. What I did was measure 38mm to the first rail line. It isn't, it is 38mm to the plastic edge of the KATO track. SoI'm ripping up the tracks, platforms and picket fences and relocating them back the 3-4mm they were out by. It will be OK, the buildings and the background will stay the same, I might have to find a way to squeeze in a second dummmy line just to have somewhere to store the little diesels and wagons.

In other news I have decided on the theme for my next T-TRAK module, It will be a double module, as I need to swing the second line away from the first to accommodate the 40mm needed for the Island platform of the Rural Station kit that I purchased from Plaza-Japan when I bought the rest of my kits and track. The goal is to be a matching unit to my Maintenance module, even to connecting with the passing siding and having a small yard.

Pictures shortly.

Oh yes, for some time I have been under the impression that my Maintenamce Depot theme was a first for T-TRAK asI had not found any mention of another. Well last night I was reading messages from the T-TRAK Forum (the one from the USA) and found a link to Dave Halloran's module gallery. He has some really great modules and his gallery is worth a look-see. Especially his Maintenance Depot photo. Some ideas there for me to think about.
