I'm trying to make a stand-in MS100 because each and every one I've gotten from Digitrax has come with some sort of defect (or the time when they forgot to send the MS100 and only sent the LocoNet cable...). Could someone please tell me how to create my own? Thanks!

FX with DCS50 and DZ123PS Hai guyz! Um. Anyways, here's my issue. I have a DZ123PS decoder in my HO (lol...) Kato SD45. I am trying to make the loco's front headlight do a Mars light effect when I activate F3, which I have used my DCS50's option switch 6 to make a latched function. The...

I'm having troubles with it. The drive rods on the right side will not stay attached and every once in a while the wheels jam when the drive rod screw gets stuck. How can I fix this without risking locking it up permanently?

Because I sure as heck don't! If there is anyone in the Seattle area who'd be willing to help me, that would be GREAT. I can pay! (not too much though lol don't charge $5,000!)

I (99.999%) completed my first EVER single-handed DCC conversion last night! Save one wire, but that's easy to fix (lol wrong spot...)

I just got back from a show over the weekend, here are a couple of pics of my HO Big Boy compared to an O-gauge 4-6-6-4 Challenger: HUGE PICS as always. I have a great video, but I can't convert it right now. Hang with me, I'll post it soon! Unfortunately, I was so busy running my...

CAUTION: LONG IMAGES! Ok, to start I just want to say that this is the last thread I'm going to make before I start my layout, so any other new stuff will be put in here.

Givens and Druthers Denver and Northwestern RR (just for the layout) Scale: HO Gauge: Standard Prototype: None Era: 1941-1985 Region: None Railroad: Union Pacific with a bit of Great Northern (Empire Builder). Space: 10X10, plan only uses 5X10. Describe Space: My own personal bedroom! A...

I am in a SERIOUSLY good mood today! Check out what I won on ebay: Great Northern Empire Builder set - F3 A-B and a bunch of IHC Empire Builder coaches! I am seriously happy now. I'm also currently bidding on a Rivarossi dome car and a UP DD40 engine, among other things.

What is the absolute minimum radius that an HO-scale Rivarossi Big Boy can handle? Thank you!

I dunno, I was a bit bored, and it's late at night, so I made this: YouTube link sign1sign1sign1sign1sign1 Taken with a basic digital camera, hence no sound. No editing either.

Would it be a good idea to have it remotored with a separate motor for each set of drive wheels? Added power vs. added weight... Tell me what you think!

I was wondering if anyone knew where I might be able to get a Walther's track library for the Atlas RightTrack V7.0 program. If it doesn't exist, does anyone here know how to make one? Thanx!

Does anyone have one? If so, could you please scan and email it to me? I need to open mine and oil it really badly; it runs at about 1/4 speed at 100% power...:confused:
