How about the poor folks you aren't interested in trains that had to wait for that snake to cross the tracks? :::: when is this thing going to...
Thanks guys! great shots, and I imagine it was a lot of fun for the group. Funny, just last night I watched Pentrex's Arizona Divide (Santa Fe)...
Now that I found this thread.... and I already emailed my support. I would take one or two of the ATSF versions, basically roadnumbers 2601 and...
Well, if you are ever in the St. Louis, MO/Central Illinois area, I probably could arrange a field trip to a working dumper.
Nice photos Doug, I love the comment about the Chevy's! I'd have to say that I'd like to have a couple of models of both the ES44DC and the...
When I looked at Microscale's site, it says they 100 in stock of 60-1255, which I think is the N Scale wedge scheme, it is for the ES44DC though....
Yep, I believe you do. But don't think that the reversing sections have to be in their own power district. Decide on a whole layout level where...
You should be able to do that. Feed the output of the booster to each section of the PM42. Configure 3 of the sections as the Auto-Reversers, and...
Let me first state that I regard Doug as more of an expert in Digitrax DCC than I am. So if I conflict with him, pay me no attention, I'll learn...
Hemi, I've got two PM42s wired up as standard short circuit managers (not auto-reverse) and it was pretty straight forward. Looks like you...
Based on the photos on the German website, I'd say all of those red/silver warbonnet's are Super Fleet, and the photo you linked to is the...
The last paragraph of page 29 in McCall's Early Diesel Daze references the following: "The underframe of each unit was a one-piece steel casting,...
Good luck with the project, it should be very cool. I have a friend who has the HO model of the twins. I only have the book Early Diesel Days....
I've approached my layout using two different methods on the upper and lower decks. The upper deck is made from 3/4" plywood with a 1/2" homasote...
Welcome to Trainboard CSX Robert. I have one of the new MRC diesel sound decoders (with attached speaker) installed in one of my Atlas GP38s. I...
I'd say it's worth the time and trouble if you really like (no make that love) electronics and working with individual parts (capacitors,...
I'd have to think about this, but in the case of my Kato F7s and F3s, I'm not sure you could reverse the motor leads as I've used a drop in...
Glad to hear everyone is doing fine. We need to see pictures of this monster truck!
Bill, I'll add my praise to the chorus. Great work, as always, I'm an admirer of yours.
Nice overall pics of your Winslow, Randy. I remember watching in awe as you constructed La Posada, but I don't think I've see your whole yard yet....
