- Cleaning And Care Of Your Model Train
by Victor Epand. This is something you con do yourselves, but I'm going to suggest you take it to the train store and ask them to show you how. The reason is that each locomotive is a little different. They come apart differently, they use different materials, and so forth.
The basic concept is fairly simple. Remove the locomotive shell. Clean out any dirt with a can of compressed air is often handy for this, th... products, articles, news
- Comparison of Popular Model Train Types and Brands
by Victor Epand. Fleischmann trains are made in Germany and are of very high quality. Most of my model trains are British or American. But I do have a few Fleischmann locomotives in both HO and N gauge and they are really superior. They are comparatively expensive in the United States, but well worth the expense.
Kato is superior equipment, but they only manufacture American and Japanese models, not European as ... products, articles, news
- Model Railroading Is Railroading On A Bench Top
by Bob Carper. The hobby of model railroading has been around for almost 100 years. Every Christmas, no matter where in the country we live, Santa would bring a train set and tracks, and it would run round and round the Christmas Tree.
Then, as soon as the Christmas tree would be taken down, the train set was stowed away in its packing box. It would sit in the family closet until next Christmas. Many times,... products, articles, news

- Has Your Model Ship Sunk?
by Derek Wood. Perhaps you thought of getting a new tall ship model lately, if so, you might have given some consideration to building one. The choice of whether to build or buy does not even take into concern the type of ship you are looking to get and that will be left to your preference.
In any case, there are several issues to dwell on when making such a choice. Factors that must be accounted for include s... products, articles, news
- Putting Together An Airplane
by Victor Epand. Of the three, the Firebird Scout is the best of the group. All three are designed to separate, with little success of learning to fly RC. The only thing wrong with them is that the radio is not really reusable, since the majority of planes you'll be dealing with in the future require at least three channels. They do not come with quick chargers so you'll have to get several more batteries and the... products, articles, news
- Model Planes Batteries And Brushed Motor
by Victor Epand. There is really no "best" radio for your plane, as Futaba, Hitec, Airdromes, Multiplex and JR are all fine brands, if you live in the US. They all have six-channel or better radio systems. For a beginner, the brand to select is the brand that your instructor will be using so that you can get a buddy chord, or he may have one, and then the transmitters can be used together. If you haven't already ... products, articles, news
- Replacement For Model Trucks
by Victor Epand. I think anybody makes a replacement metal truck that just screws on and provides exact coupler height. I have replaced trucks but always had to do some work on the car, either cutting the pin off and re-drilling a hole and filling the existing hole with plastic spree or other filler's, then drilling and tapping the hole. I would have to sometimes shim the truck with washers to raise the car too t... products, articles, news
