All-Time Model List All-time, All-scale NICKEL PLATE ROAD and Predecessor Railroads MODEL LIST Prepared by Nickel Plate Road Historical & Technical Society (nkphts.org) Modeling Committee Version 2.16 updated February 27, 2019 Note: Models in this list are either built to closely resemble NKP or predecessor railroad prototypes or come factory painted and lettered for NKP or a predecessor railroad. Three-rail models are included if they can be converted to scale with new trucks and couplers. Blanks or listings in red signify a need more information or confirmation. Listing marked with an asterisk* were done as NKPHTS Special Projects. Photos of some of the models appear in a gallery at the end of these listings. – Tony Koester, NKPHTS Modeling Coordinator Freight cars Z scale Open hopper Z Mfgr./importer Car description Car nos.

    Official Publication of Northeastern Region THE SUNRISE TRAIL DIVISION, INC. National Model Railroad Association VOLUME 35 NUMBER 1 SPRING 2005 MODELING MINEOLA a heavily traveled main, two junctions and a variety of traffic make an old standby a gem to model / WALTER WOHLEKING CONTEMPORARY TRENDS in layout design encourage model railroaders to emu- late a prototype with their selection of loco- motives, cars and scenery, to execute their trackplans with prototype-appropriate Layout Design Elements (LDEs), and to operate according to prototype practices employing staging. Because all of this is a lot easier said than done, result often play lip service to concept, and good intentions metamorphose into a collection of rolling stock lettered for the prototype passing through a fictional location on a route that never existed, all regulated by a fast clock to increase the frequency of train appearances and operating interest. Make no mistake about it. This can be a formula for a very satisfying model rail- roading experience. But if emulating the prototype is really what is desired, then it can also be a stretch. Model railroading is truly the art of compromise, and as its prac- titioners model railroaders daily face that challenge from concept through construc- tion to operation of their creations. If truth be told, however, the universal aim of rail- road modelers everywhere is to find a rea- son for as many different locomotives as possible with as many different consists as possible to have as many different things to do as often as possible on their layouts. Without heavily massaging reality, most Few pictures better illustrate Mineola’s modeling potential than this 1953 photograph by William prototypes don't cooperate much toward E.

  • Alco PA with Prime Mover 244
    True Sound Project for Zimo Sounds designed by Heinz Daeppen US Diesel Seite 1 Version 200612 Alco PA with prime mover 244 Foto Wikipedia The Prototype The ALCO PA was a family of A1A-A1A diesel locomotives built to haul passenger trains. The locomotives were built in Schenectady, New York, in the United States by a partnership of the American Locomotive Company (ALCO) and General Electric (GE) between June 1946 and December 1953. Designed by General Electric's Ray Patten (along with their ALCO FA cousins), they were of a cab unit design; both cab-equipped lead A unit PA and cabless booster B unit PB models were built. While externally the PB models were slightly shorter than the PA model, they shared many of the same characteristics, both aesthetically and mechanically. However, they were not as reliable as EMD F-units. ALCO's designation of P indicates that they were geared for higher speeds and passenger use, whereas the F designation marks these locomotives as being geared primarily for freight use. However, beyond this their design was largely similar - aside from the PA/PB's both being larger A1A-A1A types with an even more striking nose - and many railroads used PA and FA locomotives for both freight and passenger service. Wikipedia True Sounds made in Switzerland True Sound Project for Zimo Sounds designed by Heinz Daeppen US Diesel Seite 2 Version 200612 Sound Project Information The sound project is made with genuine sound recordings of a prototype. F14 reduces the diesel motor sound to idling while maintaining the same speed.

  • HO-Scale Conversion List Handout
    ® HO-SCALE COUPLER CONVERSION LIST 7-8-21 The Coupler People Most of the below listings have conversion drawing and instructions on our web site at www.kadee.com/hocc.htm Newer models that have factory installed knuckle couplers are easily converted by using our standard head #148 or scale head #158 Whisker® Couplers. Always check the coupler heights with either our #205 or newer #206 Coupler Height Gauge. This coupler conversion list is our suggested starting coupler for the conversion. (Typically requiring the least modification to a model utilizing our newest couplers even though other couplers also work for the model). Our conversion’s based on only one model from a production run, there may be inconsistencies in a model’s production run that require a different coupler or model modifications to achieve the proper coupler height for coupler function.
