Can You Operate on a Tiny Layout? HO Module Operating Session Have Fun with Just a Few Trains!
One of the best things about the model railroading hobby is that the model trains can be used! Model trains can operate just like the real thing. With some track, a good locomotive, and some freight cars, you can do the same things the full sized ones do.
Dan's HO scale module was never intended to be a standalone layout, but circumstances made it into one for many years.
Despite not having much space, Dan had fun with the tiny layout, switching cars between the spur tracks.
In this program, Dan recreates the type of operations that he used to do with his HO scale trains while he lived in a condo.
Since he now has more space, Dan also set up a temporary extension to show how that can make a difference with track planning and operations.
Dan goes through the same basic scenario twice. The first time uses only the track on the original module. The second takes advantage of the longer run on the extension.
