That's the end of HOn30Once again stuff started failing. The Roco turnout's frogs are too shallow for the lousy deep flanges of N scale wheels and while the stuff goes through it does not do it smoothly, especially the loco. I have to draw a line somewhere and I am not going to waste any more time and money on this thing. ![]() The final straws were two. ![]() There is a time when failure after failure reaches a point that a project has to be abandoned. A hobby or creative exercise should be fulfilling and fun, not 90% hassle. Oh sure, there will be the occasional problem, but not nearly all the time. This has been going on for over 10 months, so enough is enough and it's gone. I will keep all the scenic material, wood, plastic etc. Everything which is HOn30 specific has gone in the trash. ![]() I've removed the HOn30 track and put some ground cover on the raised part. The base'll be kept, covered and sit there until I decide what to do with it. If I ever do something like this again, it will be a larger scale which I can add detail that looks really good plus the locos and rolling stock work.
