Map of links About us News Events Photo album Layout Resources Membership Guestbook Links This page is the beginning of a collection of various useful tools for bringing trains into good condition and keeping them that way, or descriptions of how to make some simple tools for this purpose.

At this time, you can find here the following:
  1. A weight scale, showing you recommended weights for railroad cars depending on the car's length. Print it out, lay your car onto the length scale, and read off the weight. No calculation needed.
  2. A plan for a coupler height gauge, useful particularly for MicroTrains and similar knuckle couplers.
  3. A plan for a trip pin gauge, for MicroTrains and other knuckle couplers that allow adjustments to the trip pins.
