G Scale | Locomotive And Track Conductivity
Anirban is from Kolkata (formally known as Calcutta) India, and like Subhash (a regular contributor to this blog), he is making his own trains and track from scratch. This is amazing as most of us enjoy the luxury of buying read-made trains and track from shops and shows. But, as Subhash explained once before, they don't have the selection in India and also things a very expensive, so they have to be inventive to be involved in the hobby.
Anyway, Anirban is hoping someone will be able to offer him some advice:
"I am from Kolkata and scratch building a G scale model. I am facing problems with building the locomotive and the tracks. Making sleepers for the track is a real challenge. Also, I am unable to have the wheels conduct electricity from the track. The wheels do not conduct properly and hence the test model has jerky motions. Please do help!"
Maybe Anirban could send in a photo of his loco to show everyone.
