:mrgreen:Seriously tho, floyd, I don't see why it would do that if the Connectors are all connected properly. Can you scan the connector diagram, I can't remember how the through-bus works exactly. wall1 Is the tower connected to the first switch in the group? It's a little weird, but maybe just...

Gotta be in the wiring....:p

Hi Steve, Just out of curiosity, what is the track centerline spacing on your Shinohara? Thanks!

Hi Kent, I've only used the Model power in N-scale and I remember I did not like working with it much. For Atlas, try: Atlas HO Track and Accessories - Trainworld 718-436-7072 US 28.00 for 10 pcs. Used them in the past, they were very professional, well stocked, shipped quick. I'm...

I would say go ahead and buy the Bachmann. It's inexpensive enough for a temporary setup. Like you say, no programming but if you get another system later you can program with that, and use the EZ Command for a test track or even for stationary decoders. Extra equipment like that seldom goes to...

Go for it, Cheetah!! There are several threads on flex track installation, with various suggestions to ease your pain. :mrgreen: Also several threads on soldering technique. practice on scrap pieces first if you have not soldered before, otherwise its like any other solder job. :thumb: (In...

Reverence for the earthly body is misplaced. "Dust to dust, ashes to ashes." The more important thing is to ensure that your family are together forr eternity. Personally, my remains will be cremated as it is entirely distasteful to imagine them decaying in the ground. The ashes will go to my...

Atcherly, I Got-No-Eye-Deer! That's strickly a WAG!! Just looks like that... I hope someone really does post a correct answer.

That's a heated blower to melt ice in the points during the winter months.

Our daughter's bf is coming in from Germany this weekend to "meet the parents". She told me on the phone today, "Now, Dad, don't try to talk him into trains!!" But I'm bringin' an n-scale loco to show off, ya never know!

You guys just be aware that a 12 volt car battery can deliver several hundred amps, more than enough to destroy your motors, melt your rails and set your table on fire (ever seen a car burn down?). As long as you have a circuit breaker (or fuse) to protect your equipment from short circuits...

There's a whole lot more that put up with it than that do it!! :mrgreen:
