Hello,

Just wondering if there is anybody here on this site who has purchase one of the KPF Zeller rolling road mills or has had an experience in purchasing for the manufacture at this site as is seams to be German only?

Looks like a good price if it does include 6 sets of rollers like it seems to suggest. Have you tried putting it through google translate? Can't do it on the phone to see but it looks interesting.

I've no personal experience but another forum I belong to has quite a bit of comment on them (which may be more related to the Speed Cat).


Some people seem to love then and some hate them so much that they asked for money back.


You could join up to the RR&Co forum to read the comment for yourself.


Massoth make a rolling road that is quite easy to get hold of in the UK. The rollers just clip onto the top of a piece of track. I've got it and can recommend it.

Seconding Cliff's comment, the Massoth rolling road setup is excellent - a little pricy but it works very well. I use mine on a length of bench-top track with either an LGB 1-amp controller or my SPROG connected to it, great for CV programming as well as testing locos under DCC or analogue.
Never heard of the KPF Zeller type, looks interesting but I'll stick with the Massoth one.

Jon.

Yer the google translator or others translators for that matter are not that good at translating this site, it looks some sections it misses out translating, the important parts, anyway I like the design and for the cost, it does include the six tread mills. considering what you pay of some other rolling roads sections out there by the time you mount them etc etc time + money they cost way more then it should, I'm sure someone with a minimal grasp of mechanical knowledge could get the unit working correctly.....?
