    The light at the end of the tunnel

    Light? Light? Anybody that still sees that light has got to be living in the past. I checked again, and the last time seen here was Oct 29. If I'm in the wrong tunnel, why isn't there a light at the end of this one? Does every tunnel have water and elevators in them? Are you sure it isn't the...

    The light at the end of the tunnel

    The light at the end of the tunnel

    Exit! EXIT!!!! If that there itty bitty pinpoint of light IS the exit, Then I got no problem. I would never have got that far away from it in the first place. Consequently, you fellers be standing by yourself, and I'm on the other side of it. That is, IF it is really, truly, by gosh honestly is...

    The light at the end of the tunnel

    Quite truthfully, I'm scared of that dark, dank, dreary, forlorn looking hole that goes thru the ground horizontally. I'm just standing there with the rest of you guys for protection. Besides, I looked outside and it's purt near nigh unto dark out there too. I'm brave enough to know I ain't...

    "John Bull" and "DeWitt Clinton"

    DeWitt Clinton I have had 4 of these Bachmann sets, and all of them were good for about 4 laps around a track. For some reason, every one of them seem to get an internal short in the motor. I sent 1 back to B'mann, and it was good for a half dozen laps, and Bingo, same thing. Good to set on a...

    zealot e-mail

    email MR Don EZDays. Please note I was heavy on the mister. I tried to get the email notification before, but that was before it was working right. Could I possibly beg, plead, cajole, coerce, or in any other manner, get you to repeat the steps necessary to get that email notification? Or tell...

    power

    G power I went into town today and swapped out transformers. The one going bad is from an Aristocraft set. The output is 0-21 VDC, 15 VAC and the total output is 22VA max. That MRC of mine appeared a mite weak, but will do for a day or two. I took the back off this one and the F-R switch is...

    Could someone point me in the direction of the exit?

    Questions I'll tell you why I ask questions, and very, very rarely chime in on answers. I'm a lurker, and read lots of threads. An example I'll use is "On track with Deano". I thoroughly enjoy the pictures, but continually read with absolute amazement how (tongue in cheek) they tell one loco...

    power

    These trains run 8 hours a day, 5 1/2 days a week, so I believe I'll try for a little more power. It sounds like my MRC will do until I find one. They run about half throttle, so that may be a redeeming factor. Those little ones that came with starter sets have lasted a couple years, and one is...

    power

    OK, OK, you got me on that one. I knew there was an A in it, I just got the other letter wrong. It says 20VDC 20VA ??VAC TOTAL 22VDC 12VA. I hope I got that right. I can't remember it long enough to get back to the computer. Anyway, does that make it strong enough...

    power

    I'll need to check on the ones I'm using. The one I plan on using is an MRC 1500, with o-20VDC and 12 ma. I'll have to wait until I go to town next to check on the "G" ones. Thanks Lynn

    power

    I have a question concerning a power pack for G gauge. I keep trains running at a pediatric clinic (2 seperate trains). The Xformers came with an Aristocraft starter set, so they are so-so, but work out OK. They have a slide switch for F-R-Off. Will an HO powerpak run G for a while so I can fix...

    Could someone point me in the direction of the exit?

    The Zealot Gauge I have been a member here for many years, even tho my number of post doesn't show it. I have asked some questions, some of which were so off topic that I was surprised I got an answer. I have lost a lot of memory (heart attacks do that), and I come here to get answers to...

    loco runs better in reverse

    back-erds Leon, I had one of those a long time ago. If the motor is at a slant, with a worm gear to the drive axle, that's the one. If you look REAL close at the motor shaft (and worm gear) when going slowly forward, stop and watch it going slowly backwards, you will see some play. Mine had a...
