What is the Magnorail System and how does it work?
|
Magnorail™ brings the magic of movement to your model train layout and dioramas. It has the solution for more activity on your layouts' streets, in the paddocks or hills and on water. MagnorailOz ships this great product across the world with free consultations available in the concept stage.
Thanks to an invisible, highly engineered chain system, with strategically placed magnets, everything starts moving. Even better is the fact that the system is scale agnostic with all the motive power underneath your roadbed meaning you can place vehicles from Z to OO gauge on the system. (Bicycles are only available in HO gauge though)
The Magnorail system invented in the Netherlands in 2012 has already seen hundreds of modellers from across the world buy their sets through MagnorailOz, and have already successfully incorporated the Magnorail system into their model railways and dioramas.
How does it work? A plastic channel and chain system with magnets placed in correct sequence for a variety of effects, runs under the road or water surface. This highly engineered plastic chain is powered by a 12 Volt DC motor. Vehicles seemingly roll unaided across the road and boats, jet skis or yachts skim across the water surface of your layout. The combination of the moving chain under the roadbed with embedded magnets that pull the bike along, allows the clear centre wheel to interface with the road surface giving the attached articulated legs the illusion of people pedaling their bikes.
In Australia the Crater Lake layout seen at Victorian model train Exhibitions shows off the range of possibilities that the Magnorail System can bring to your layout especially in the area of water scenes.
In HO scale, the viewers favorites are the tandems with a couple going for a pleasant ride, whilst the very European delivery bike harks back to early years in Australia with bakery delivery boys pedaling furiously around the local streets. Also available are single cyclists (male, female, postman or sportsman on a mountain bike). And there's more to come.
A range of brass sliders are available for vehicles in scale TT, Z, N and HO/OO. This allows almost any car or vehicle in those scales to drive through your own model layout. You can set into motion vehicles of any period your layout is depicting, from any manufacturer! Or mopeds, motors boats - even skiers being towed... plus, vehicles can be swapped in seconds.
You too can bring your layout or diorama to life and amaze the audience.
