Livesteam-indoor convention Sinsheim 2007

12.01.2007 - 14.01.2007

From 12th to 14th January, the doors has been opened for the 11th livesteam indoor-convention at Sinsheim/Germany.

This year, we've setup an narrow-gauge layout with rolling stock 20" up to 30" on 5"-track (2"-scale to 3"-scale). Here are some photos from our layout.

Overview. At the right the engine tracks, left the dumpramp	Another view of the dumpramp and our factory-wall in the background	The dumpramp with stg-gauge track (7.25") and one narrowgauge-track. At the right is my Derrick-crane
My "Diana" is hauling a long logtrain from a friend. This was a hard job for my little steamer, but she handled it great.	WOW....	The 2nd day, my diesel-switcher has some trouble with the gears...
...and we repaired this by using our tool-car.	The engine could be fixed, but some hours later, the gearing was broken again. But this time...	...it will need much more to do. I'll have to disassemble the hole engine this time :-(
TThis is the dumpramp with an chain-elevator to lift up the loaded cars and dump them into empties	Lunch time... This barbecue is build in 3"-scale too...	Are you hungry?
Little man on a great run...	The son of a friend is only 6 years old and had a lot of fun by plaing around with our dumping-area and trains... Good to get the youngsters to our hobby,	My Diana with a long and heavy logtrain Movieclip (ca. 670kb)
