If you are only planning on running 1 loco, you don't need insulators. I don't see a reason why you would need them.

If you can't fit in sound, you can buy one with sound in it, like Atlas MP15DC http://www.atlasrr.com/HOLoco/homp15a.htm

You can go to www.walthers.com type in Victorian House and Search. Some come up. I had a cheap (life like maybe?) haunted house that was victorian, If you don't put in the boarded up part of the windows, you wouldn't know the difference. (Except for the ghosts, lol:eek::eek:)

That track is mostly made for beginners with simple layouts. Most simple layouts use 18 and 22 radius, that is probably why they make it that way. You could use 22 on the outside curve and 18 for the inside.

Best wishes for a speedy recovery.....Hope that MOW crew took care of you !

Thanks:wave: It is actually HO Scale on a woodland scenics module, that I took outside on a nice day. The loco needs to be weathered before this looks real, lol. Also, your electric wires look great, You don't need to do anything differentjawdrop

Hmmm.....first time attempting to post a pic here:)

Can you give a simple how-to on the winter scene ? What did you use ? It looks great.

Isn't precision scale co. still in business ? Try emailing them. They should know what it is if they made it, right :-)

I think my ruler is this one from a company called excel : http://www.excelhobbyblades.com/product_info.php?cPath=64&products_id=513

If your only space is what you outlined in your first picture, methinks Green Elite Cab is right. I dunno if all those tracks will fit in in HO Scale. It make look good in a drawing, but you need to either draw it with layout planning software, templates, or layout the actual track itself. A...

Hi....I don't know the answer myself but this is worth reading ! http://www.gatewaynmra.org/dcc/powerbus.htm

I don't think you can run any non-DCC locomotives with the express or advanced.....they are kind of doing away with that option....some of the older systems you could have only one DC locomotive. On my layout I am planning to be able to unhook the DCC unit and hook up a DC Power pack to the...

Try and read books and magazines if you can. They will give you some ideas. Try Magazines : Model Railroader, Railroad Model Crafstman. Try books from Kalmbach Publishing (avail. @ hobby shops or local library). Try websites nmra.org, atlasrr.com (layout diagrams) and...

Here .....check out this link for an example of inside running... Link

I don't want to ruin everyone's suggestions, but maybe (depending on size) you could just use one of those plastic type folding tables you can get at home depot or wal mart, target or something. This can save you the hassle of building benchwork if you are not comfortable. What scale are you...

I also have the prodigy express. I haven't used it much yet but it is really not that bad for the price of it. I don't believe it is made for a large club layout, it is made more for what you have, a small layout. It seems pretty easy and is a good intro to DCC. Lots of people swear by...

I don't know much, but you need to do process of elimination. Do other Loco's work with the same controller ? Does the loco work on DCC but just not the sound ? Can you test the speaker with another decoder ?

It appears the new atlas cars have prototype information, at least in their catalog. I saw it on atlasrr.com I believe

I know this is now off topic, but I believe the show is available on DVD !!
