Northpoint Posted July 7, 2011 Share Posted July 7, 2011 I would have thought it was right up your street, Jack! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
shortliner Posted July 7, 2011 Author Share Posted July 7, 2011 It does trigger thoughts of motorised magnets under the track and one of the little HO scale forklifts - but I'm currently working on a rotating traverser for a trackmobile! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

shortliner Posted July 7, 2011 Author Share Posted July 7, 2011 It's okay Pete - just having one of my "daft ideas" phases - although it does seem to work! I'm actually working on "Atlas Terminals" in Trackmobile Contest on Carls site - http://www.carendt.c...t/vote/V23.html - modified to be 60" x 15" , but since I don't want to modify the TMs that I have, I need to have a rotatable traverser to move it from track to track - all will eventually become clear!

trisonic Posted July 7, 2011 Share Posted July 7, 2011 It's the concept of a "rotatable traverser" that grabbed me! Β Best, Pete. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sir Ray Posted July 8, 2011 Share Posted July 8, 2011 I'm actually working on "Atlas Terminals" in Trackmobile Contest on Carls site - Atlas Park, the mall that replaced Atlas terminals, has been so unsucessful over the past 6 or so years that they'd be better off replacing the shops w/ industry again.

Β All part of the economic recession in the retail industry, and lack of checking out your target markets in the area - F W Woolworth had it right when they decided that selling a million items at a penny profit was better than selling a hundred items at $1 profit - a lesson that much of the retailing world has forgotten - if you charged a dollar for a rail journey of 100 miles, and two dollars for anything further, you'd have so many passengers that you wouldn't know where to put them!
