I have been away from HO scale for awhile (I bounce between HO and N). I'm interested in getting pointed in the direction of locomotives I should...
I understand the policy. Please delete or close this thread if necessary.
I'm considering taking a trip to visit a BIG model train store. I just love shopping through large inventory. Trouble is, I don't know where any...
Thank you for the information!
Here is what I'm wondering if it's available: Does anyone manufacture a 4 axle switching engine that has ditch lights and sound? Extra bonus if...
Thank you all for the input. Long shank couplers fixed my issue!
I am building a switching layout using kato unitrack. The switches are #4 because I got a great deal on a bunch of them. The engine I have is an...
I've recently become quite interested in sound as a part of my operations. I have some limitations such as my small switching layout is only DC....
Moving up from N scale, I already value weathering, but see it as even more important in the larger scale. I've tried several cars on my own, to...
A friend is offering me an Atlas 8-40bw that has a decoder, but not sound. I really want sound. How difficult would it be to change the decoder...
Is a 8-40bw the same length as a 8-40cw? How do each of those compare to a dash 9 or a AC4400 whatever?
Thank you for the video. It was very helpful! If you have one of a diesel, I'd love the link. But this gave me a good idea of what to expect....
As mentioned in the question I posted about HO track, this scale is somewhat new to me. I'm intrigued about doing something in HO and...
I don't know much about HO scale track (mostly an N scale guy). Other than Bachmann and Kato, does anyone make HO scale track with the built in...
It is unitrack. Not my preferred route as it doesn't look as good as ballasted track. But, I find it hard to ballast switches and keep them...
I really like your concept. Could you post your track plan?
I think it is. Now to be clear, I don't use the magnetic decoupling. I use the bamboo skewer method. This will probably differ from what most...
The original point of "How much switching is needed to keep things interesting?" is I think a different answer for different folks. After...
Thanks for the part number. It does indeed have micro trains couplers. Call me crazy, but I prefer the accumates.
I have an N scale Walther's gp60. I would like to put atlas accurate couplers on it. Can someone give me a part number that would work? All...
