I'm in the market for a quality product and I was wondering what people thought about the Proto 2000 and Athearns premium locomotives. They both seem do have the same qualities but Walthers of course touts theirs as revolutionary. I noticed that Walthers seems to be out of what I want but my...

Yeah.... was thinking of the P2K. That is if I can find one in stock. I may be going home empty handed.

I'm picking up an ATSF GP30 on Tuesday. Can't wait.... What brand and Model are you thinking of Miles?

O thank them. I don't think that I've had an original thought in years. :P Jeff

These photos mean alot to me. I can only remember the Hemet depot run down and boarded up. They did the restoration and it looks great but they put a coffee and juice bar in, complete with a huge sign out front. Uhg.... The Perris depot looks great too but sadly, the San Jacinto Depot was torn...

I picked up a book on wiring (easy wiring), but its more confusing than anything else. It's easier to when it spelled out out in english. Thanks again. Jeff Wait till I need info on track feeders.

I think I understand it now. I haven't played with this stuff for probably more than 25 years and even then it wasn't remote. Thanks for the info and rest assured, there will be many more questions like this in the future. Jeff

Does momentarily pressing the switch change the direction until it is presed again?

Thanks alot! I'll play around with them tomorrow night and see what happens.

Great, that's what I had thought. Does anyone know of a site that shows a simple wiring diagram that links two or more to one supply? I plan on using my bachman controller accessory terminals for power but I wasn't sure how I was going to hook them up.

I ordered up a few of these left and rights for a layout I will try to attempt.

Forgive me if this is a stupid question but I need a little info on the atlas remote snap switch. What is required to make it work besides of the switch assy and a power supply from say for instance, the accessory terminal of a power supply? Thanks in advance. Jeff

DUDE!...how cool. That's my home town! Jeff Hemet, Ca

I have found that out. Thanks for the welcome.

Building my first layout and using my tax return to do it right.

New is looking for something pre-assembled and inexpensive. Unfortunatly, I'm not sure there is such a thing in this hobby. I think the plastiville is the cheapest out there.

I bought and tried the Xuron cutter tonight....Sweet.

Oh I tried on 10 right off the bat but as soon as I throttled up, the engine hunched down like it was being sucked to the track and wouldn't move. I thought I had burned something out at first but I tried it on DC track and it ran fine. I guess it's no big deal.

I'm not sure what is a good price. The Hobby store down the street sells it for 2.39 each. I just assumed that was the going price.
