In your hidden station, you can build a dust cleaner, just a brush or duster that touches the top and perhaps the sides, so you get the dust of them, easy and you can still run them while cleaning ;)
Ich hatte auch mal über 1000 M-Gleise... waren mir viel zu laut. Mittlerweile fahre ich C-Gleis und digital, viel angenehmer... schöner wäre es, wenn die Geschwindigkeit etwas gedrosselt wird, die Züge fahren zu schnell... trotzdem eine schöne, kompakte Anlage
Nice layout! But they are going way too fast... They are driving like 150 km/h, even through stations! Try calculating a normal speed to scale. Like, a normal speed limit through a station may be 40 km/h. To scale, that is 12 cm/second or so. Likewise, a train running at 150 km/h would equal 50 cm/sec.
+Gerben Wijnja (Berg) I find that when uploading a video to you tube, when played back the train/ car seem to be running very fast. Once or twice these ones did seem to be running fast but this is up to the owner as to how fast he wants them to run. I enjoyed this video.
Trains don't slow down at stations, unless they stop or have to pass through points set to the diverging track. If they can pass straight through (and they usually can, because those tracks are kept empty for this very purpose) they do so at whatever speed the tracks allow.
SomiTomi Maybe not where you live, but here in the Netherlands trains have speed restrictions in stations, regardless of the rail they're on. It's usually 80 km/h, sometimes 100. But a train coming in with 140 km/h is never allowed to continue on that speed. 80 km/h is 25 cm/s at scale H0 (or 10 inch/s).
I'm not sure but, if anyone else wants to uncover ho railroad try Corbandy HO Scale Crusher (search on google)? I've heard some amazing things about it and my work buddy got amazing success with it.
Ein gutes Beispiel dafür, dass das alte Metallgleis von Märklin auch gegenüber den neuzeitigen Gleissystemen immer noch einiges hermacht. Allerdings würde ich die klobigen Signalantriebe, die einem förmlich ins Auge stechen, schnell mal von der Plattenoberfläche verschwinden lassen. Das würde dann schon mal ganz anders aussehen....
The first platform is superfluous. There is no such thing with the railroad. This nonsense is often found among model railroaders. For what should it be?
It's actually common where I live: the first platform is connected to the old station building and (probably) no longer in use but still preserved for historic reasons, while the other platforms are newer and still in use. So this is not nonsense at all compared to real life. If that is what you mean?
Im a train and I approve this video - Choo choo!
Really nice! Great lighting on the night scene!
Hello. Thank you for this excellent report. Beautiful vintage trains and layout. I enjoyed watching your video. What a great time!
I like these old M tracks. nice layout and beautifull sound of the cars
thats a small yet a really cool setup, good work!
Great track, great landscape. Bravo.
Just like in the old days, nothing wrong with the good M rails.
Nice layout, lots of driving possibilities 👍
Liebe den M-Gleis Lärm. Daumen hoch!
nice work with M rails and little space.

Very nice. I like it.
Cool wie groß ist die Anlage

I see, Netherlands is a different place. Hungarian Railway doesn't bother, passing the platform at 120 km/h is fine by them.

Hallo,
tolle Anlage.
Bau gerade eine Anlage mit M-Gleisen auf.
LG Roland
Verry smart u-turn system :D
Very good.

Gute Grusse aus Shanghai.
Great
super!
Viel Verkehr auf der Anlage.
Nice track 👍
Nice
1 marklin train hated this)))
1 marklin hater, I hate you.
