Hello,
ive been reading this forum for a while,looking for answer to a few of my questions.so then i thought maybe i should just become a member and just post a new topic with all my questions on to see if someone could help.
firstly ive just taken the plunge of selling my 00 gauge to start the joys of n gauge modelling,so looking for a few answers before i go out an spend the money on th wrong things
1.what is the best way to fix down code 55 track?ive seen about screwing it down then ballasting the track then removing the screw,but for my first project i think i would like to just to have a layout that has basic scenic details but runs well,so now ballast as of yet!
2.best way to cut the track??in 00 gauge i used a junior hacksaw which worked well,but seeing as n gauge track is smaller will it work as well,also ive seen the xuron track cutters available are they any better for cutting the track??
some help would be great
cheers
Tom
