Here's a video of the Nason Atlantic pulling some Lionel cars and the Nason Interurban on the layout:
So far it took me about 8 hours a foot to do the track. I did the gray track, the track with tan roadbed is from 1937. I spent a lot of time getting the rails perfect, but didn't pay much attention to the 3rd rail. I need to raise it in some areas.
The Atlantic doesn't like the switches. The points are just pinned. I need to clean and repair the points and frogs so they sit correctly.
The interurban will only run counter-clockwise. There is a warped insulator on the underside of the loco and I think it's snagging on rail spikes.
I'm going to add outside pickups to a Lionel 004 Semi-scale Hudson loco and convert it to DC this weekend. I also do a full scale Hudson for the layout.
I'm having fun.
