Ah yes a Tommy's burger...Yum!
That must have inspired me.... There has been a lot done on the Burbank Branch in the last month, so here are some up dates:
1. I have got all the main tracks installed and all turnouts and motors aligned and operating.
2. I extended my wifi into the basement and now have wireless control using WiThrottle, Engine Driver and JMRI through smart phones.
My DCC is an NCE PowerCab with a NCE computer interface card. The wifi and smart phones have been working flawlessly so far and I'm very pleased. This set up allows visiting operators a control device without having to have extra cabs on hand and keeps the operating isle clear of cables.
Now on to some visual projects that are taking shape:
First up is the second building in the Zero Manufacturing complex. This is not rail-served but is part of the character of the complex and could not be left out.
It is still under construction but wanted to show progress shots and the general layout. Enjoy!
And a Google link to the real building:
