I plan on setting up my programming track on the layout on a siding track probably, following the MRR February 2006, page 59 article.

Feather River Train Shop :: Fox Valley Models - Brass Wheelsets: 33 inch Wheel with .540 axle for Micro Trains 100 pack - FVM-3301-100 Based on this page, looks like 100 packs haven't been released yet, or just on a huge back-order. I've never heard of this brand either, and have been...

dealers Plenty of other dealers that sell the brand you can check with. Maybe also email Mike at Fifer Hobby to see if he can get some.

I had a radio shack Pro-97, connected to a Radio shack magnet mount antenna on my car (with only the top section attached). It worked fairly well, with a range of abotu 1-3 miles or so depending where I was. I eventually sold it as I really getting out much to do railfanning in the area lately...

http://forum.zealot.com/t116083-8/#post775083 Here's what I ended up doing.

Here's the start of my swinging staging bridge thingy. I first screwed a 1x3 to the wall, to a wall stud. I then attached two heavy duty doorhinges, and to those a piece of 2x4. I then bolted a 5 ft piece of angle aluminum to a L Bracket and attached to the 2x4. To the aluminum I...

:wave:Welcome to the boards.

Whoops. I noticed my pic doesn't have the other desk labeled on the other wall correctly. Here's a better image showing the idea and one of the wall corner where the bridge would be connected to the wall and swing from. Hopefully this makes more sense now.

Hi folks, This morning I had a brainstorm for how to setup my staging without dealing with curving rack in a tight corner. Here's a pic of the lower level: Now here's my thining. I would put a piece of benchwork crossing the door at the bottom, about 6' long, 4-5" wide. Trains would...

If you're looking for some Modern buildings, check out Summit Custom Modern structure model kits and cutting service I've got their Taco Bell and Dominos kit in n-scale, and waiting for them to get some other HO kits done in N-scale next year. A little expensive for some stuff, but it was...

Pics, yay! Here's the lower level where staging was. It'll be the home of GERN's new processing plant. The area above the track will be at 1.5" high on risers. The track is on a 2% grade riser, making it's way to a 2" rise. Next up is where the Lake Charles water...

Only if you happen to live in the same house I do. sign1

Staging Level Revamp I’ll update with some pics tonight, but the staging level has been totally revamped. I completely removed staging and will turn this stretch of track into industry space for the upcoming GERN processing plant (a superior paper kit). The span on the lower level that...

Yup, another new name. Today while I was trying to come up with a story for a new industry on they layout, GERN industries, I decided to base my layout on some real world places. It’s easier to come up with stories and such when relating to real world places I found. So I picked Union...

Call it a really really super impulsive buy, but I pre-ordered an Athearn Big-Boy 4-8-8-4 N-scale locomotive last night. :mrgreen: While my layout is set in modern times, I've always wanted a fancy steam engine to run for those special excursion trips. I had originally bought an Athearn...

You're looking at it probably. :) What type of information are you looking for?

Just saw this at CNN while reading another story: At least 5 seriously hurt as trains collide - CNN.com

You can buy a 6-pack for 89.95 at Tony Trains, and probably a little less on ebay. Compared to the 89.95 for 4 of these servos. However, while the Tortoise may be cheaper, I do like the idea of having a single board for all the wiring of switches and LEDs of up to 4 turnouts. Seems it would...
