The Albuquerque Carnuel & Tijeras RR ACTRR

 

Mike Fifer’s N Scale Layout

The Albuquerque Carnuel & Tijeras RR # 4

The N Scale ACTRR 4 is also a fictitious line that now will be running in the ATSF era from Albuquerque east through the Carnuel Spanish Land Grant and through Tijeras Canyon to Tijeras and on to Moriarity where the line splits north to Madrid , Cerillos , Lamy and Santa Fe , and to the south from Moriarity through Estancia , Mountainair , west to Socorro, south to Kachina , Val Verde , San Marcial , Lava , Engle , Rincon , Dona Ana , Las Cruces , Anthony TX and finally to El Paso to interchange with the SP .

The NEW ACTRR 4 will be moving to a 12 X 18 foot Train Building from the old garage room. The bench work in the new building will be all new. It will still use 3 walls and leave an open space to the left of the entry door. We continue to run DCC and be running on a Digitrax Evo wired and use wired throttles plus and LINW and UR93 for wireless as well. I am also using Kato Unitrack and turnouts with great success once again.  The new layout will have a yard and local switching at the front of the layout once again. Scenery is loosely based on Southern New Mexico.
The new layout is once again being back-dated and totally rebuilt using foam on open grid wood bench work..

The Albuquerque Carnuel & Tijeras RR # 3

The N Scale ACTRR 3 is also a fictitious line that now will be running in the ATSF era from Albuquerque east through the Carnuel Spanish Land Grant and through Tijeras Canyon to Tijeras and on to Moriarity where the line splits north to Madrid , Cerillos , Lamy and Santa Fe , and to the south from Moriarity through Estancia , Mountainair , west to Socorro, south to Kachina , Val Verde , San Marcial , Lava , Engle , Rincon , Dona Ana , Las Cruces , Anthony TX and finally to El Paso to interchange with the SP .

The NEW ACTRR 3 is still in the 8′ X 19.5′ room and use’s a modified version on the old bench work. It will use 3 walls and leave an open space to the left of the entry door. We are now running DCC and will now be running on a Digitrax Evo wired and use wired throttles plus and LINW and UR93 for wireless as well. I am also using Kato Unitrack and turnouts with great success once again.  We have this time created a yard and local switching at the front of the layout with push button controls. Scenery is loosely based on Southern New Mexico. We have now also created a southwestern scene on the south end that includes a reversing loop for the engine house and yard.
The layout is once again being backdated and totally rebuilt using foam on open grid wood bench work..

This was the ACTRR 2   2009-2017

The N Scale ACTRR is a fictitious line that now will be running in the BNSF era from Albuquerque east through the Carnuel Spanish Land Grant through Tijeras Canyon to Tijeras and on to Moriarity where the line splits north to Madrid , Cerillos , Lamy and Santa Fe , and to the south from Moriarity through Estancia , Mountainair , west to Socorro, south to Kachina , Val Verde , San Marcial , Lava , Engle , Rincon , Dona Ana , Las Cruces , Anthony TX and finally to El Paso to interchange with the former SP now UP.

The NEW ACTRR is still in the 8′ X 19.5′ room and use’s a modified version on the old bench work. We are running DCC and will now be running on a Digitrax Empire Builder wireless. I am also using Kato Unitrack and turnouts with great success so far. I have now added a helix and 6 lower staging tracks. We are now adding a Branch Line along the front of the layout for mainly coal service to the new Southwestern Energy power plant. Scenery is loosely based on southern New Mexico.
The layout was about 90% complete and running well and is now getting it’s modern era makeover.
