Durham Bull

Our Display at NRV Train Show

 

 

We are a Durham, Eno River Basin North Carolina 

T-TRAK Style Modular N & HO Scale Model Railroad Cabal.

(T-TRAK stands for Table Top Modules)

We are in part Ex. Military Veterans and encourage other Veterans to join us in enjoying

& promoting modular model railroading as a community service and as an aid for PTSD.

However you don't have to be a Veteran to join us, We don't collect members like friends on Facebook.

Instead we prefer to be a small close-knit group of friends that just like

"Having Fun Running Trains"... 

"Less Members = More time on the tracks"

 

 

Membership

You might receive an invite to join us from a member or request one by asking below.

Both cases are temporary memberships to see if you are a good fit.

If you are a good fit you will be asked to join us officially, if not you will still be a valued friend.

 

Our Core ...We Are Not a Club.

There are No Meetings, No By-laws. No Agendias,

 No Bank Accounts, No Officer's, No Elections, No Clicks,

No Show guidelines, No Equipment Checklists,

No Rule committees, No Standards committees, 

No By-Law committees. No Politics....

 

The Only rules we like is the "Golden Rule & Common Sense".

 

 

DAMTRC's Clubhouse & Public Displays

are designed for Longer Trains

&

less damage from little fingers...

 

1) By using a Single row of T-TRAK Style Modules

in the middle of 30 inch wide folding tables.

 

2) The Club Layouts terminates into two Custom Lollipop Modules

Designed by

"T-TRAK by Denniston"

Thet connect the main lins Red to Yellow and

Yellow to Red respectively at each end.

Making the entire layout a continuous loop.

 

3) Our N scale layout uses larger 16 inch Corners instead of the standard 12 inch ones.

Designed by

"T-TRAK by Denniston"
All our N scale corners use the New KATO Double Superelevated Unitrack.

 

4) We are a 100% DCC Only Powered Club.

Using Digitrax Systems

DCS240+ Advanced Command Station

&

LNWI Wireless Interfaces.

 

5) Typical Layout Configurations of Straight, L and U shapes are

possible in lengths that can be as small as 10 feet or as long as 75 feet.

We can even set-up our layout agonist a wall! or dog leg around a corner.

Lets see other club layouts do that...

 

6) Our Custom N Scale Yard is 18' feet long with only

two staging spurs that are over 2 inches of track separation.

Making for easy setup without toppling over yours or someone else's train.
