Model Details

LAGGIES Helix - Reaching Higher Levels Made Easy!
The base circle in HO scale with a track radius of 360/437.5 mm, for single or double track.
Each helix can be built with a right-hand or left-hand incline. The complete kit includes all necessary supports, track segments, and detailed assembly instructions. You will need one base circle for each helix. The number of additional circles required depends on the height you wish to bridge.
What exactly is a helix? A helix is a spiral track in which a train travels from one level to a lower or higher level. The train travels downwards or upwards within the helix. The helix has the same gradient at every point, allowing even long trains to easily overcome significant height differences.
When do you need a helix? The applications are very diverse. Here are some examples:

To reach a lower or higher level.
To access a hidden staging yard below the layout.
To connect two layouts at different heights.

How is it ensured that the trains do not derail in the curves of the helix? The outer curves of the helix are superelevated by 3 mm. This significantly improves running safety and reduces rolling resistance.
What versions of LAGGIES helixes are available? Helixes are offered for H0 and N gauges – precisely adapted to the specific requirements of each railway manufacturer. All helixes can be built with either a left- or right-hand incline.
How can I bridge larger height differences with a helix? A so-called base circle is required for every helix. This base circle includes the entrance to and exit from the helix. Any number of extension circles can be placed on top of this base circle – depending on the height difference the train needs to overcome.
The base circle: The base circle comprises 1 1/2 circles. A single base circle provides the necessary clearance height as well as entry and exit points. The extension circle: The extension circle comprises a full circle. Any number of extension circles can be placed on top of a base circle. This allows even the greatest height differences to be easily overcome in a very small space.
What does the LAGGIES track helix consist of? The kit includes precisely milled track segments made of 4 mm thick plywood and cleverly designed, interlocking stands and brackets.

NOCH 61130 - Grass AdhesiveModel DetailsThe adhesive for our Grass Master!NOCH "Grass Adhesive" was specially developed for electrostatic flocking with the NOCH "Grass Master". Compared to regular white glue, NOCH "Grass Adhesive" has a lower surface tension and sets more slowly – this means the grass fibers are encased in the adhesive bed and remain upright. This process ensures a super-realistic result... just like the real thing!Due to the slower setting of the Grass Adhesive, larger areas can be flocked for longer periods. Note: NOCH "Grass Adhesive" dries clear.Note: Model building item. Not a toy! Not suitable for children under 14 years.
