My Modules

My first T-Trak showing - two 180 corners, two single straights. Built just 2 weeks before the event, our community treelighting ceremony in December 2013. T-Trak doesn't have to be big to be fun!

Double and Triple Length Interchange Modules

  • Interchange modules that do not require matching sets on opposite side of the layout. NOTE: NOT intended for making a "bubble" in the way traditional "Steve Jackson Junctions" do.

Balloon Tracks (turnaround loops)

  • End Loop or Balloon modules that allow a dogbone or arm from the main layout.

Expandable Loops

  • Used in conjunction with two standard alternate spacing 90 degree corners or a 180 degree end cap, these modules open up the possibility of creating a T-Trak layout that feels like it's actually going somewhere.

My Trains

Running on the Orlando N-Trak club layout, before the move back to Ohio.
