Hints that may be worth noting 1. its a lot easier to solder wires to the SEEP motors before installing them, just easier to do on a bench, sometimes a frog wire has to be done on the layout but its worth experimenting. 2. its also a lot safer to measure the operating wire length and cut it away from the layout, can't damage the points, and again access is easier. something for the wire in tube ones, glue can work, however the metal bit from an electrical screw connector can work nicely, and is also easier to adjust if ever needed. nice to see the SEEP have enough through to drive the switch on TT though and the rest looks very nice :)
@ThatModelRailwayGuy8 ай бұрын
Personally I find it easier to solder the wires onto the motors once they're in place. Obviously it's easier for those of us who can flip our layouts but I find it a really quick job. Similarly I find it much easier to use the full length of the rod when lining up the motor underneath. As you can see the dremel makes quick work of the cut as long as you don't go to fast when grinding down the excess. It's all personal preference though, there's no right or wrong way to do it.Thanks for watching 😃

Excellent video - thank you! But it has raised two questions 😁: 1 I have the illuminated Pullman coaches, so is suspect they have the capability to short out too - is it a safe assumption that the length of the isolated track in the reverse loop needs to be long enough to hold the loco and all illuminated coaches? 2 How do you reverse direction again? Will you be installing a second reverse loop, or will you rely on reversing the loco and coaches? Looking forward to the next one in this series!
@ThatModelRailwayGuy8 ай бұрын
Glad you enjoyed it! 1. Yes ideally the isolated section on your reverse loop should be as long as your longest train to be absolutely safe. I have seen some people saying that even the metal wheels (regardless of whether rolling stock has lights or not) can trigger the AutoReverser as they cross the join. 2. Once trains have been round the reverse loop they can then access the upper level station again. Here the leading loco can disconnect and another loco facing the right direction will take the train out again. The Class 50 and and possibly the Duchess will have couplings on both ends so that shouldn't be to much of a problem. The A4 and A3 have no front coupling so before their next train they need to be sent back round the reversing loop as a light engine. Fitting these manoeuvres in around trains if part of the fun or this layout in my opinion. Thanks for watching 😃

Hey! The info here is really useful and I love the idea of using the D-SUB terminal to route power to the control panel. Could you use it to transmit track power for a DC layout too?

As I mentioned in the first episode it's slightly under 2nd Radius so tighter than I would like for these locos but that was the compromise we had to make.

@ThatModelRailwayGuyАй бұрын
We've mostly used HM7000 decoders in the locos but the layout track power is controlled via conventional DCC because of the reverse loop. This gives us the option for running either via Bluetooth or, as in the case of the Class 08, standard DCC. Hope that helps and thanks for watching 👍

Hiya, so at 05:12 you can see I have 4 wires with 2 on each side of the track join. Both pieces of track make up the isolated section so need to be joined up to the autoreverser. That's where the 4 out comes from. You could just have a single set of wires and rely on the continuity to pass power through the fishplates, but I didn't want to take any chances with this layout.

I love this video and the TT120 Series overall. On Saturday at the NEC I even purchased a TT120 Scotsman HM7000 set. I have a question about powering the track. I think I know the answer but unsure I'm correct. With my train having the HM7000 decoder and being Bluetooth enabled from the box, do I have to use the power connector track block in the set to power or can I just solder the wires to fish plates. The other question is what are the Hornby reversing loop boxes like, and do I need a specific model for HM7000. I will be looking at getting a Elite controller sometime so that I can use both DCC and hm7000 decoders
@ThatModelRailwayGuyАй бұрын
Awesome, great to hear you're getting starting in TT! The power doesn't care how it gets to the track so soldering directly is absolutely fine - personally I would solder to the outer sides of the rails rather than the fishplates but that's just a preference. As far as I know Hornby haven't released a reverse loop module for HM7000 yet. If you want a reverse loop you'll need to power your track using a conventional DCC controller and then use a DCC reverse loop module like I did in the video. Hope that makes sense and thanks for watching 😃
@WavesandWheelsUKАй бұрын

We don't have a ETA for that yet though. Auto Reversers mostly work with DCC power so the only way to use the HM7000 with a reverse loop at the moment is to have a DCC Controller powering the track like I've done on this layout. You can still control the locos via bluetooth but the Auto Reverse modules themselves need to be powered by DCC. Hope that makes sense and thanks for watching 😃

This track plan is actually really clever! Manages to cram alot of operational options into a really small space! However, I wonder if not being able to turn locos around on the top level might become a bit of an issue? 🤔
@ThatModelRailwayGuy8 ай бұрын
It's all thanks to the reverse loop really that allows trains to depart from the station and return to it without having to propel back up the incline, which visually I wasn't keen on. We considered a turntable at the top but it would have taken up so much space it wasn't really worth. The compromise is that once a loco has returned to the station, at some point it needs to run light engine round the reverse loop again before taking over another train - fitting that into the operating sequence is part of the challenge. Thanks for watching 🤩
@anthonylulham34738 ай бұрын
Will you put a turntable in to the station to get the engines back the right way again? Im assuming an escape point etc, or another loco to take the train from the rear. Otherwise the operation will need the hand of god. 😂

There isn’t room for one. The Duchess will have a front coupling apparently so possible tender first running and the 50 has a coupling at both ends too.

Should provide for some really fun operational interest to keep everything in the right place. Thanks for watching 😃

@@philsilva13 If you want to have a reverse loop of any kind then you'll need to have a proper DCC controller (whether that's DCC-EX or another make). The auto-reverser electronic modules are only compatible with DCC power rather than the standalone HM7000 power. You can still control the locos through the HM7000 app, just as long as they're powered by proper DCC. If you don't have a reverse loop then it doesn't matter which control system you use. The wiring for the reverse loop is snow in the diagrams in the videos. The rest of it is essentially just one bus wire with feeders going to track at various intervals.
