Rio Grande F unit #5531...

Another Western Pacific F unit 804-A taken at California Adventures in Anaheim, CA...

I thought one of me was more than enough!:mrgreen:

I've done three small tables. The first one used the smallest radius - 6-13/16". This is about the absolute smallest you can go for a four axle diesel or trolley. The next one is a circular table that uses 8" radius. The third table also used 8" radius. If your interested in...

I submitted a track plan for the Track Planning Contest to MRR. The deadline was October 31st and I won't know anything until they publish the May issue. Cross your fingers for me.

I recently converted an F3-B from DC to DCC. The decoder used is the same one for A units as well as B units. Since B units don't have headlights, they assume you will either cut or unsolder the LED from the board. I did not. I left it on initially for testing sake but then I had an idea... why...

I was just browsing through the "face behind a name" thread and came across this... It's four years old but hey, that don't matter none. We'll miss you kind sir.

Good to hear about the Mt. Hood RR. It was 60 miles too far east anyways. The other one however seems like it would be perfectly located as it is in Tillamook county and we want to make a stop in Tillamook for some cheese. I'll have to check their site a little closer to make sure they will be...

I've found the Mt. Hood RR and the Astoria trolley so far.

Hey all, I'll be visiting the coastal corridor in Oregon, between Astoria/Portland and Roseburg soon and I was looking for any local knowledge of anything having to do with trains. Static displays, backyard RR's, good hobby shops, trolley rides, dinner cruises, scenic RR features, etc. Any and...

Lookin' real good Scott. I like how the modules are so small. It seems like it would be a lot of fun to scenic one.

Hey Nachoman, how goes the battle? Any progress pictures or did you get carried away with the G scale in the backyard idea?

Wow, I haven't seen this thread for a while... First, I created the depression and coated it with Wall Joint compound. Next, I painted it various earth tone colors using darker colors where the water was to be deeper. After that, I placed all kinds of dirt and rocks and wood stuff at the...

That could also explain why my work looks like crap when I look in there!:mrgreen:

:mrgreen::mrgreen::mrgreen: And all this time I wondered why I felt the need to have a bowel movement every time I sat down to do some modeling.

Did you see post #7 of mine directly above yours? I conceded defeat and apologized. Like I said, oops, now I remember and sorry.

You know, I think I'm going to have to admit I was wrong on this one but with an addendum. I do remember now operating with my Zephyr and having this problem, BUT, for the most part, I use my Zephyr as my power supply and I do all my operating with my wirelss handheld DTR400 which does not have...

Squidbait, good stuff to know. On your side of the fence, I've always thought of my Zephyr as quirky and sometimes for the life of me, I can't figure out why it suddenly starts doing things it ought not be doing. This is a good thread for me because I've been toying with the idea of switching...

I know that Digitrax will support at least one DC engine at a time using an address of 00 - That was a big one for me too. I don't think NCE has that ability.

One of these dilimajobbers does the trick for me...so far. ...and this is what N scale bricks look like through the glass...
