Ahhh, wonderful...all expenses paid? :D If so, maybe i should come with you insted :p

Hey Graham, Can i come with? **grin** I too would advise you call Mike Hagarty and try to arrange a visit...wonderful layout, and a good friend of mine. If you do get a chance to see him, take ALOT of pictures! Shame your going to be out-of-town David, but what are you going to be doing in...

Yaeh, I Fnuod taht esay To raed alewsl...mcuh mroe Fun wtih wrdos lneogr tehn Fuor Lrteets tugohh! Ltaer, AR

Care to elaborate? Whats wrong with the KATO mikado on steriods you got now?

Nice work Steve... I was sure you had something up your sleeve when you asked about the anti-glare black hood panel. Awesome as always! Later AR :wave:

LIRR, To test MSTS, i took a BNSF Dash-9 over the Marias pass...turned derailments and such off, and brought up the specs screen to test bitrate, FPS, etc...i hit 210MPH down one of the large hills! Though i doubt a Geep would haul-butt that quickly, so i should be safe

One of the things we accidently did at the last show me and the club were at was consist-on-the-fly...the couplers came apart on the 2 SD70's and since the lead unit didn't have any drag, he moved ahead alot faster. I had to break the consist, and stop the lead unit in the station, while...

Ed, Good idea!

JPG if you can, but BMP is acceptable as well...i think i found the problem on my end, but the image was at fault as well...software read colour code wrong. Anywho, once you upload, i'll tinker and give a general idea what i think'd look cool :thumb:

I tried to save the image as a .gif, .jpg and a .bmp file...they all came out with only greyscale colour capabilities...as in no matter what colour i picked in the paint program to edit them, they all appeared greyish...Is this the way you saved it, or is it the program? Later AR :wave:

Graham, Good question...very good question...operations ain't a strong point on my layout, but this is something i might seriously try...if it don't work, i'm not gonna be broke for trying. Later AR :wave:

Hemmi, I love ambroid pro-weld...wonderful stuff, and great for filling small holes in plastic too...as it does melt the styrene a bit. Lookin great, CSX...gonna be a big building! :D

I'm at school now, so i can't tell you for sure if i have anything you can use, but when i get home, i'll be sure to check and see if there is anything that can be of any use to you. Great Idea for a project :thumb: Later AR :wave:

Graham, Little off-topic splurge here, but on my layout if i stuck with DC, i would have got 44-45 shut-off sections (12-track yard and 15-stall roundhouse adds up quickly) but since converting to DCC i'm chunking the blocks together to ease of use and to make the pannel less cluttered...once i...

Can we block off the doors? Any other limitations?

Graham, Rockingham units have primer, if they're lucky!! Although, i think we finally found a prototype for running undecorated units on our trains...splatter some paint, stick on a faint CN and some numbers, and your good to go! AR

Not a problem

Mathieu, I know this isn't what your looking for, but PWRS did THREE EV BCR Cabeese...shown here: 2-tone green scheme as on the Kato SD40-2 units. 3-stripe red, white and blue scheme. This is the 3-strip, though it's the Expo '86 variation. Checked the Atlas site...none of the 3 EV...

I agree with cyb0rg totally...i consider mine a medium size, but it IS pretty big to a 16-year-old :thumb: Edit: Not to sound tooo perverted...but some of these posts could come of really badly! :p :rolleyes: ;)

Thanks guys...now, to find the shells
