I have A digitrax (how surprising) TF4 function only decoder that i just installed in my NJ transit Cab Car (HO scale) in order to power the headlights when in push mode. at first the headlights kind flashed on and off, then they just wouldn't turn on when the car was on the rails. At first I...

Whatever you do..... DON'T BITE!sign1

I don't know what it is either. True, i have been on the is less time than you (i've only turned 19 today, yay me), but i am always tempted to model things right before electric freight is dicontinued, going back into the late 70s, early 80s. There is probably a romance of feeling about all the...

I just got a shipment from them, they were fast, no trouble as far as i could tell.

remove the coulpers, pull the shell up. Done.

I'll take those Conrail SD40-2s, lol! You have a very impressive model railroad, how long have you been building it?

yeah, that centurion tank does look like a tiger at a distance. I remember that being a problem in real life.

What is this? tiger tanks on those flat cars! they seem out of place.... where are the Shermans?

Cool, i have a lot of the same ones. I've been saving up for an Atlas Gold Conrail C40-8W.

I think its because back in the day, the railroad was still up there and important, and as far as toys go, there were few things that were as impressive as a lionel train set. It was big, had all sorts of interesting things to go with it, and fun. I actually saw a show on how lionel got...

I don't know you guys, the polish ran an armored train in WW2, and the nazis had a nearly impossible time trying to stop it. Tanks and infantry weren't enough. They would roll out of thick forests and harrass the germans, then roll back before air support could find them. Eventually they...

i just saw one today in my hobby shop. It does look pretty nice.

I was not happy with this episode. There were several problems i had with this one. For one thing, the Acela isn't the fastest train in the US. I'm pretty sure the toasters can go faster, but i'll have to check. They also claimed that the Acela is the most powerful locomotive. While it is...

Its in the basement of the Footlighter's Playhouse in Cinnaminson, NJ. Here is a link to the site- http://www.electronicsolutionsco.com/bcmrc/open.htm

Yeah, i never did replace those pictures. I uploaded those directly the the gauge, and they were lost when they changed the site up. Anyway, not only do i not remember which ones they are exactly, but they are also older pictures, so they tend to be pretty craptacular as a result (i had...

Nah, you can run a dinky! Also, you can order the power trucks from NWSL directly. The last i checked, some silverliner IIs can be had for the price of $236 on Dave's Trains, and they look nice, new, and shiny, but like you said, thats steap. Atleast it is powered already! Yeah, i just...

I don't think SP ever had any AC6000CWs. I heard the BLI model is "imaginary". I think in truth they were going to, but the merger came before they got ordered, but i might be wrong.

My Conrail Ballast Express C32-8 has finally approached completion. This has been a tough one, especially with the frame modifications. I'm also irratated that the flat clear paint "faded" everything, but thats only a problem for some decals (particularly the black "Conrail Quality" decal on...

Yeah, i got those Silverliners for $40 in total (there were more like $230 the next time i saw a pair out on some brass website). I wish i got those arrows for the same deal, because they really sank my wallet, lol! I haven't gotten around to getting the silverliner IIs to run, but All they...

do you have a pinvise set? i have a little metal case that has various sizes from what i think is #60 to #80, and then i have a secondary set that has some doubles of the first, and larger ones in the #50s range.
