Does anyone have any experience with the PX112 Power Xtender and how it compares to a Keep Alive? Thanks, William
I would like to do the 40' or 36', but there isn't enough room in the car for the decoder and keep alive. Wm
Yes, it works great. Had a car made with the sound decoder in it without the keep alive and it was not a good experience. The keep alive keeps the...
I want to get another soundcar made to run behind my Bachmann 2-6-0 Steamer for my coal mine scene. Ideally it would be a 50' boxcar which has the...

Is it necessary to break-in new locomotives, and if so, what is the preferred method? Thanks, William

What is the primary difference between the GP7/9 Atlas locos and the GP 30/35/38/40. I don't care to much for the looks of the GP7/9's. William
Thanks Bob

Looking at a Kato SD40-2 Early with the Kobo Shops TCS DCC Installed. Called the store and they don't know which TCS decoder it is. They assured...
I just looked thru the list of retailers and there some that have what I am looking for. Thanks.
I will go with all of the voices of experience here and stay with the Atlas GP7/9 or SD9/24. The question is where to find them? Searched the...
How about the Kato SD45 - it says that the minimum turning radius is 9-3/4"? Anyone have any experience with this model as far as pulling power...
