Digitrax Zephyr wireless Jump throttle

Jack has various broken remote control cars. i also bought a great little working one from Dick Smith (similar to Tandy) for twelve bucks!

Insurance inventory

I have built an online system on this website to manage my inventory of locos, rolling stock, track, electronics, structures, vehicles, books, DVDs...

12V power supply

I can source from a recycler for about $15 large power supplies in a heavy case with front handle, fan, mains socket, switch, fuse, terminal strip etc etc

Microlighting using surface-mount LEDs

have done some experimenting. The roundhouse will have outside lights made this way. I see someone is selling these pre-soldered to leads.

Super-intuitive DCC throttle

Digitrax user interfaces suck, big time. i want a throttle I can hand to a visitor and they can use it with minimum instruction.

DC throttle

Finished. Was used on peter's N scale layout for some time. has memory walkaround. next step; pulse and ultrarealistic behaviour; pump air, low on fuel etc...

HO scale camera car

Finished. It has video cam on an adjustable arm so it can film from down beside the rails or up above the loco. Can be pulled or pushed. Looks like nothing prototype but gives a great picture.

HO scale-sized FRED

This is a removable blinking red FRED with no wiring inside the rolling stock. It has a scale-size FRED with a small black unit hidden under the coupler box and wipers on the nearest truck.

TranzDoor lifting door bridge

This is a fairly standard lifting bridge across the doorway, except for a couple of unusual aspects.
