Heavy Electric Modular Group
#1
Hey guys!

I'm happy to announce that a few other guys and I have gotten the ball rolling on a heavy electric modular railroad. We seem to have plan for overcoming some of the technical issues, and a few of the modules have already been built. They only need track and catenary.

Each module will have 4 track mainlines (going full Pennsy Broadway for this), and will have live catenary. So far it looks like we've only got Northeast Corridor guys involved, but I don't see why there wouldn't be other electrified routes included (though granted, not many other railroads had 4 tracks under wire for long stretches).

Here is a photo of the module. I did not build it, but I might learn how. It is "light weight" but sturdy. it is 5' by 18". The legs can be adjusted to be 40" or 52" high, depending on our needs.

My plan is to model the Northe Elizabeth commuter station on the Northeast Corridor in New Jersey.
