N Scale Train Layouts - What To Do About N Scale Train Layouts Before It's Too Late!


The history of railroading also referred to as railway modeling is a very popular hobby where the transport system of train commuting is transformed into a mini fantasy world of scale or ratio reduced railway tracks, trains, signals and scenery, imitating a real-life road trip via a train. The first adaptations where rugged carpet railways which where exchanged for polished and life-like electric train layouts sets.

Simple beginnings: Great bench work is the basis for good track work. Make sure your work table or bench is vigorous and firm, made from thick lumber for the legs and frame and ½ inch plywood with some kind of rubberizing on top as noise insulation will suffice. You don't want to squander time and efforts by building your whole train set on a platform that breaks upon completion of your project. Keep in mind who your plan viewers will be, most probably small kids. You definitely don't want them to mess up all your hard work, so make sure the bench top is high enough.

Smoothness is everything: Remember smoothness is essential to the train rides' success. Smooth tracks will mean a smooth ride. While building your bench make 100% sure that it's level, even the smallest unevenness will show during the mini train ride. Fit track parts, switches and joints firmly and also check that the straights are straight as an arrow.

Free flow: Pick a spot where your plan will start, either a curve or bridge. Have your rails naturally flow from there. Place railway sections in the directions you want the rails to lead. Do not use a large number of screws as you will have to unscrew them all if any modifications or changes are necessary. Let the layout develop, mount a few more screws and do a trial run run. Please remember to do wiring and leading before eventual mounting is done.

Everyone join: Call friends and family to help with the constructing of the train layouts. You never know what plan genius is hidden next door or in your kitchen.

You can easily design your own model train layouts. For more tips and tricks on planning the ultimate n scale train layouts visit http://www.modelrailroadlayouthelp.com

The CDITU Site Is Whatever I Want It To Be About!

Well once again this blog site is about whatever I want it to be about.

With that being said I have decided that while I am always willing and able to provide advice for those that would like to start blogging for the express reason of putting some coin in their pocket then I'm right here and willing to give a hand.

But the Coolest Dude in The Universe site was really just an experiment with SEO and nothing more. I found a term that had really low competition and wanted to see how quickly a Blogger Blog would rank for a non competitive phrase.

So what did I find out?

Well the proof is in the pudding so to speak.

Google obviously has many different criteria about what they consider relevant to a search query but this blog makes it painfully obvious that when you search for the term coolest dude in the universe in Google, this site is the number one ranking and has been for years. That's right years.

As of today I own the term.

Here are somethings that I know for sure.

1. I was the first person in the entire planet to claim the term Google knows that so they give me what I would consider the benefit of the doubt when ranking me.

2. I have been posting regularly and when I say regularly I mean sometime during the year. Not everyday or week or month.

3. Not everything on this site is relevant to being Coolest Dude in The Universe.

4. I've noticed that others have tried to take the term away from me by going to the extreme of actually purchasing a coolestdudeintheuniverse domain name. Why?

I wasn't even trying it was just a test.

And so you have it others are wanting to be the CDiTU but it's just me.

Now that I've gotten that out of the way. I have come to the conclusion that since Google does like this site and has provided me with a number 1 ranking I will start posting about a lot more different topics in order to promote my own agenda.

So stay tuned for a wide variety of topics coming from The CDiTU site
