This is wonderful, seeing it grow and develop. I will probably never have the space for this kind of thing, but my in-progress Met-themed Inglenook keeps me sane and it's nice to see a similar dream realised and existing physically, not just in my minds eye. Long live Metroland!
Thanks for the support and encouragement. I'm really enjoying creating the Metroland vibe from bits of memory and alot of UA-cam driver cab cams. Can't tell you the number of virtual journeys into Harrow on the Hill station and still see something new everytime.
DCC Concepts (no affiliation) does under track magnets to assist with traction on inclines, you should be able to get away with just using them on the up lines. Then add a couple of small magnets to the bottom of the struggling locos.
Thanks for advice. When I was looking at replacing the motor I discovered one of the small cogs was missing so motor only inputting half the energy. Have got a replacement cog and motor so will see if things improve.
First time your channel and just been enjoying watching your handy work. I’m part way through building a layout in the loft, but work stopped on the layout to insulate the loft, wish I did it first! 50mm celitex topped with 25mm, comfortable up there all year long now. No warping wood. Keep up the good work 👍
