One of the Model Railroad Hobbyist issues had an article about choosing the right radius, I believe it was the first issue, you can get it here:...
the 0-6-0 looks realy nice! If you can get this much detail for 150$, where's the point of buying proper brass?
these look really great, especially since they are great northern!
Hi, I've recently DCC-equipped a Bachmann H0 Doodlebug myself. If I remember correctly, I couldn't find a green wire either (I'm shure of this...
@triplex: thanks for the list :bear-smile: I was thinking of getting rid of my F7s and GPs and getting some FTs to be able to run some steam, but...
I've seen some CB&Q bilevels somewhere in the past. But I can't remember where, perhaps custom paint job... I'd love an BN E-Unit with red...

this is great news, thank you very much, I didn't think anyone would react that quick :D
This thread might be somewhat older (I found it by chance through google) but I would really like to see an Alco HH 900, too. Hopefully some...
I had an IM F7 (Great Northern of course :) ) which had the same problem, only worse: the whole nose was "glowing" orange. So I painted the inside...
hey, to calculate your resistor values, you first need their operating voltage and current. This is often something like 20 - 50mA and 2.1 V (for...
Hi, I don't model the RI, but I had two websites in my bookmarks that might help (at least with diesels): Rock Island Technical Society - a lot of...
Thank You! I'm using H0 and 16V
looks like the Lenz decoders only have pwm, so I desoldered the bulb and soldered a LED and matching resistor in (I didn't realy like the colour...
