Hi,
Happy cristmas and new year to you all,
I'm a newbie here and could do with help for my latest project .... i have made a board up 4ft x 2ft as an extension to my main layout, or as a stand alone subject.
It is to be a container terminal set in the U.S.A. what i'm looking for is a track plan/ideas for the terminal, also trying to locate container crane ... i have the walthers hi jack already but want something more substancial such as the Brawa/Heljan working crane but all i can find is this crane in HO/OO and my layout is N scale, reachstacker trucks would be a good addition they are available in N but who stocks them ?
Any help would be gratefully recieved.
My layout is as i mentioned american, although i have an interest in the class 37 freight trains, any helps i can give to other members i will anytime as i have been modelling for over 30 years covering mainly military subjects so weathering/techniques of modelling i would gladly share my experience, my downfall in railway modelling is the electrics ...... so a conversion to DCC is the way to go i believe ......
