by a colleague I have become aware of the monthly tours of the model railroad club Horw . In a cellar in the center of Horw being built on 500 m2 of a plant in H0 and H0m. Right now, the model railway in the shell, all the tracks are laid and can be driven for demonstration purposes in some parts. The landscape will be strongly embedded in steep mountains, so that later be seen only a small part of the track is. Therefore, now is actually a good opportunity this large facility once before to look at completion.
I find it interesting, the operating concept. There is one (1) continuous circle with about 140 blocks, which is traversed by the trains completely. The transit time of a train should be around 2 hours. This concept is called "real-time system" and it will be the largest in Switzerland. Hazards will have a final with the system Lauer in analog mode. This is remarkable in this day and age, but most especially with the know-how of club members do. Roland Niggli - which also leads the connected business sales - completed home here along with a dozen club members his lifelong dream. Conclusion: Very impressive and definitely worth a visit.
On the Club Homepage there is more to the technical details, a track plan and also many photos to see the development.
