Nice clean installation. Can't wait to see it when completed. Looks like you went with the Walthers Kit. How does the turn table match up with the tracks to the maintenance shed?

I purchased some vending machines in N Scale from "chucktheprinter" on e-Bay. He is in the Cleveland, OH area. Charges only $2.00 for any shipping anywhere. I bought 4 beverage vending machines (2- coke, 1-Juice, 1-water). I also bouth a Hot Dog and Ice cream cart. Just go to n scale are on...

You won't find burnt orange at any Wal-Mart. You will need to go to a hobby shop or an Art Supply Store. Do you have a Hobby Lobby?

Oh my! Do I really want to go with DCC? :confused:

Yes Marxed! Your right. It does look like that football is on the line which is a TD. :D OH BTW, did you notice how those Steelers were practicing Model Railroading by putting the "SWITCH" Play in motion. Whoops Another TD!:D

Let's be nice everyone. We shouldn't be name calling here. We are all adults working our railroads everyday. The Super Bowl is only once a year. Maybe your team will win next year. Now back to the rail talk. Boy did those Steelers RAILROAD those Seahawks!:D

Yeah Steelers Yeah Steelers aussie balloon6 bounce7

I believe Walthers has the prebuilt in N Scale ready to go $249.00. It is suppose to be weathered and everything. I suspect one could find it at a 20% discount from some LHS.

Darn: I just bought the Walthers. GRRRRR:cry:

I am on my second layout. The first was HO and this one is N Scale. I have bought an aweful lot of stuff for this layout. You name it I bought it. I have a good size L shape table builts and the tables have casters. I insist that I have going to make a plan before I lay track. It's been...

Jon: Below is the reponse from Micro Trains regarding their conversions for the Con Cor Heavyweights. Obviously, they have heard from others based on the response. I will have to look at the coupler itself to see where this V cut should be and best find a modeling file to cut the V. More...

Jon: I did apply the weights to my Con Cor Amtrak Heavyweights as you suggested. I have found that the cars run a lot smoother but they still uncouple at curves and swithches. I am using Kato Track and Kato #6 Switches. The curve track are pretty wide (purchased the wide curves just for my...

I have the Atlas Track Cleaning Car and I still don't know what cleaning solution I should use in it. I wrote to Atlas and I am waiting for their response. Will keep you posted.

I own an Altas Track Cleaning car and I am looking for a fluid to put into the reservoir. Meanwhile I have been using the hand method with an eraser type scrub found at any hobby shop. Good Luck.

You will need to know the manufacturers name for both your cabooses. Then go to http://www.micro-trains.com/00_conversions.htm and look up the coupler numbers. Sometimes it is easier to buy the trucks & couplers together to ensure proper fit. You can probably buy just to couplers for a...

I am going to attempt to combine a table layout with T-Trak Modules. I don't know if it has been done before. I have included the table design that is already built (actually 2 tables). I am sure I have allowed enough space on the table to 2 or 3 trains running at once as I want a lot of action...

I pick up an air compressor at Costco. It had a lot of extra tools I can use on the railroad (air gun). For the airbrush you will need to add a filter. You can get a filter on ebay for about 15 bucks.

Ahhh. OK. I will do my best to transform my SW1200 from DC to DCC in a descriptive & pictorial type "How To". Please don't hold your breath because some projects take me awhile to complete. I also need to purchase the decoder.

Drew: How does that reverse loop work? :D I really like the hand throttles. bounce7

DavidTrains: Did you put the Lenz Mini Gold in the SW1200 and save the use of the front headlight? Thanks for all the input on this....:wave:
