D type Hooded Signal in Z-scale

There have been some slow progress in the development of signals for the Zity Edge Layout.

The newest signal is a D-type Hooded 3 Light Signal, modelled using Fusion 360.

The first D-type signal is assembled, still unpainted. And a few more gate crossing signal bridges are waiting to be painted.

Zity Moving & Storage Company is one of the industries on Zity Edge. The building is based on the Ztrack REA Transfer Warehouse kit by Archistories.

The Fuller Paint building is created from a photo, glued on a foam base.

All lights are adresseable LED's, run by an Arduino Microcontroller.

All engines and boxcars are from AZL.

Panorama view of Zity Edge Layout

There have been a great progress the last months on the layout.

Many buildings have been added and they are all now equipped with LED-light, all adresseable and run by an Arduino Mega.

Here a panorama overview of the Zity Edge Layout, both in daylight and by night.

Images from Zity Edge

3 different images from Zity Edge Layout, showing some progress. A few homemade trees are installed around the churdch. The cars need paint. Still a lot to do.

Cityline comes to live with lights

The Zity Edge downtown cityline starts to come to live with internal lights in the buildings.

Hundreds of windows are cut out on the facade and glazing are inserted.

54 adresseable WS2812 LED's in the current line, with various colortemperature in the different rooms, including the warning beacons and flashing light on top of the roof. All run by an arduino using the FastLED and MobaLedlib libraries.

The floodlight of the church are installed. More details on the landscape will be installed later.
