Final Notes:
Club Members Mike Smithson and Ben Sanders came up with this concept and design of these modules. It is a really cleaver design, as long as
they are built to the close tolerances, we have very few operational problems. Most problems come from engines and cars with plastic wheels
and couplers with trip pins too low.
We also found out about Masonite the hard way. Mike Smithson has a corner module that has the power feeds. One track is usually DC and the
other track is DCC. A recent addition is an interface that runs with an APP on your mobile device. It works well.
These modules are easy to transport, can be set up on foldout tables, be latched together and trains are running in 15 minutes or less.
These all dismantle as quickly hence the naming convention HO2GO.
NOTE: Our Club Member Mike Smithson has the only Spec Jig to align the end pieces on the Modules to ensure proper calibration to mate with
other Club Modules. I am sure if your a member, these can be borrowed, otherwise DO NOT GLUE tracks down at least 6ins. from edge
which Mike would require facilitate adjustment.
