TTR Collecting – In Practice
1936 LMS
suburban passenger set
Index
This section will attempt to answer
those questions I am most common frequently asked and give practical advice, (
my own views), on collecting and running and repairing Trix Twin. The first part deals with the basic facts,
explaining what is meant by “Twin” and why Trix Twin differs from other systems
as well as examples on how to set up and wire a layout. The second part shows examples of layouts as
proposed by TTR from simple designs to an exhibition blue print from
Bassett-Lowke’s own draftsmen. Some
useful advanced ideas follow showing you how to make flexible track and put
lights in Manyways awning platforms, ( I plan to add to this part in
future). Advice on repairing locomotives
taken from TTR publications and some tips of my own and others are listed. Finally the all important contacts needed to
buy spares are listed…. what would we do without these important gentlemen
?
