    On my blog I've been working on some model railroad How To's.

    I got into an interesting search with regard to DCC friendly switches/turnouts.
    You might be interested in what I came up with. Yes we've talked about and beat
    a dead horse here but what I found surprised me.

    Here's a list of recent postings.


    Feel free to visit and check it out. Unless you don't want to. :wideeyes:
    And by all means your suggestions and comments are always welcomed.

    Thanks Shades.

    You might want to checkout who I go to for answers to DCC's Difficult Questions. Wish he was back here on TB.

    PowerSteamGuy1790,
    His answers to questions were creditable and the help he gave me was priceless. I got into DCC because of his mentoring.

    Anyway wish he was back.

    Yes he did.

    To all tuned in here feel free to stop in at BarstowRick.com, for a visit. You may or may not like it but I've had hours of fun assembling, various videos on How To Build your Toy Train or Model Railroad. Check out Classic Toy Trains. I think you'll
    like what you find.

    I'm at it again.

    I found some excellent How To Videos and some Train Layouts that show various ways to enjoy an Operations Night.
    Even one from our friend Mike Fifer.

    Feel free to stop in and take a look. Any comments you might want to make are welcome. I've opened up the comments pages.

    The greatest compliment you could make with regard to any of the presenters and myself. You liked something you saw and decided to include it on your layout.

    One of the joys of the hobby is being able to share something you learned, something new or a new way to do something old.

    I'm one of those who believes in many of the Old School Ways of Doing Things. However, you won't believe what is happening with Toy Trains or Model Railroads. Lot's of interesting changes and new equipment coming on line. Many of the old school ways and means still hold true but what DCC has brought to the scene is darn right frustrating and awesome all at the same time.

    Check us out and if you found it helpful tell a friend.

    Thanks John, and right back at you.

    I've featured the Gulf & Pacific Railroad, John's HO Scale Model Railroad on BarstowRick.com. Look up Operations Night and I think you will catch us all guilty of having fun.

    Seems I've been blocked, somehow. Trying this again.

    DCC – BlueRail Trains – New Instalation Of A Tortoise Switch Machine How To – Videos Track – Kato Unitrack & DCC Track – Flex Track

    I've tried to download five different links to TrainBoard and unlike what I've been able to do in the past, the system isn't taking them. Not sure what to think at this time.

    Anyway, I have some new presentations on BarstowRick.com you can check out the link below in my signature to get to the latest additions.

    Enjoy or not. Just my two cents.

    Nothing is "blocked". Your link in post 17 works. But something is wrong with how post 18 was uploaded.

    Looks like one big long hyperlink instead of individuals
