Zmod action with platelayer

Running train on my Silver Creek Zmod module

In the weekend 12-13. october 2024 I attended the exhibition "Modelljernbanemessen 2024 Skedsmo", in Skedsmo, Norway, to run my module. 12 years since last exhibition, good to be on the road again. A great weekend, with a lot of nice people and old friends.

I used to have several Zmod modules, but after moving to a smaller apartement, I only have one module left, the Silver Creek module. The length of the module is 1200 mm(4 feet) by 400 mm. 

All equipment are from AZL, American Z-line, running DCC.

We have now finished the first day of the show, and have run a lot of trains.

We got some help from 12 year old Erik Bjørnsen from the city of Kongsberg. He worked as a train engineer using his android phone as a throttle. Great help for us.
