Ouverture du Rail Miniature de la Baie

Major events, 

DUCEY-LES CHERIS

25/07/2024

Open door of the Rail Miniature de la Baie, model railroad club, to discover 4 HO scale networks.
The largest and oldest (started in 1996), 10m x 5m long, allows for the circulation of 6 trains, spaced out by automatic blocks based on the SNCF model.
The decor represents imaginary places but the backgrounds, made with gouache by one of the members, reproduce the districts of Ducey - Les Chéris and its surroundings.
Many sketches, often humorous, describe slices of daily life. Most of these animations are activated by the visitors with the help of push buttons placed along the modules.

A second network of about fifteen meters long is dedicated to digital. Starting with a set of 6 modules bought second hand, we created an extension with a terminal and a transit station linked by a single track where the train traffic is almost identical to that of real trains. A depot with its functional hub completes this large network on which the trains are controlled by smartphone, tablet or multi-maus.

Another network "table" allows children to learn how to drive small trains.

In addition, we have created a set of 3 digitized modules in N scale that we can present in exhibitions or other events and which will be added to another network of the same scale, the whole representing a length of about 5 meters.
