I've had a good look on the web & all I can find is road name abbreviations. :cry:

Is it possible to have a multiple choice? Say 1 - 20? The reasoning behind this is if you have a factory that produces flat pack cardboard boxes, they may only fill 1 car per day, but if you also have a coal mine, the mine may fill 20 cars twice a day.

To be honest, it doesn't matter to me what it looks like as long as it's user friendly. I don't know what other people think?

I think you have it pretty much covered 2-8-2. I think it's really about keeping track of all stock movements so that new trains are only made up from stock that is sitting idle and/or accessible. For me personally, I'm looking at 2 small yards surrounded by various industries and 'off...

Motorway if your in the UK & Freeway if your in the US.

I used to work in a scrap yard & their are 2 types of crane used. The main cranes have a 4 fingered claw instead of a bucket. You could scratch this out of a piece of brass rod or some wire. The secondary cranes have big electromagnets which you could make out of balsa or plasticard.. Good job...

Any pictures? Local news website etc..?

I'm thinking about buying the Gaugemaster Prodigy Advance. Are there any cons with this system?

It's because the web page has exceeded its data transfer limit.:cry:

Good thread Wickman, I was thinking along the same lines myself. I have always been a hard core DC man, but with all the new technology & a new railroad pending, it seems a shame not to utilize what is out there. I am after the same (units 12->) but without the need for turnout controls, they...

sign1 I can't really see that seeing as they wear their pants on the outside! sign1
