    So, what does your wife think?

    Heck, when I retired for the last time... my wife TOLD me to get a hobby. She reminded me of my trains that had been boxed up since 1964. Ever since then, if I mention something about my layout, she just smiles and nods.... but our seven grandkids think the trains are as good as it gets. Bob

    To DCC or not to DCC...that is my question

    Andy and RR Bob hit it right on the head... I bought a MR Book (DCC Made Easy... by L. Strang) that was pretty informative, and it also covered decoder installations), but you can get a lot of info off the net [Tonys Trains, etc.]. Personally, I went with Digitrax and haven't had one...
