Jeff, This is the second time you have answered one of my questions very thoroughly. Your websites are excellent and I look foward to reading them in more detail when I get some time. Thanks, you have given me some great ideas. Like I said before, you really know your stuff. Thanks again, Clint...

Is it impossible to get an RS-1 or 3 with DCC? I noticed atlas doesn't even have them that are DCC ready. Does anybody carry these with DCC installed or at least ones that are DCC ready? Thanks, Clint

Well, today I was just looking for small track plans for my first layout. I was planning a early 1990s CSX or freelanced but I happened upon this site. http://simonet.club.fr/Poss_us.htm I have always liked the logging layouts I have seen from some of you folks and even posted on here last year...

I didn't realize it either until the other day. I thought they were just leasing it. Here are some more pics. These pictures are of the Tyson Feed plant on the old L&N/CSX line. It is a stub now. The line used to continue and ran through my hometown. It is this line that I talked about seeing...

The Alabama and Tennessee River Railway, an Omnitrax rr, would be a nice prototype to model, I think. I am more interested in CSX in the early 90s or freelancing, but I thought this might interest someone. It would be very interesting in N scale. It is a shortline that runs roughly from...

thanks, that looks good to me. Good job !

Has anyone detailed their locos with the BLMA fans like their instruction video? If so do you have a photo of it? Thanks. Clint

thanks, I checked those out and they made it look fairly simple. I hope I can start detailing my and painting my Dash 8 soon.

Here is a good example of that. In this picture you can even see an old L & N in the middle and an old B&O or C&O blue paint scheme #3823 over to the left rear. The only thing that is missing is a red, black, and white Western Maryland. http://www.railpictures.net/viewphoto.php?id=134783

Are there any videos out there that show someone how to paint, decal, and detail a N-scale locomotives? I have a cheap airbrush but I don't know if I have the guts to try and paint and decal a locomotive.

Curves are one of my concerns. I have a Dash-8. Like I said I am pretty new at this and it will be a while before I can even start my layout. I am buying a little bit at a time as far as rolling stock, locos, and some scenery goes. I hope I can find an expert that lives nearby. I am not really...

Tropicana train photos http://rides.webshots.com/album/194810240wNgnuT

Mr. Krause, Putting too much on there is one of my worries. A little of my inspiration, however, comes from Kent Wood and Ric LaBan's book N Scale Model Railroad That Grows. http://kalmbachcatalog.stores.yahoo.net/12145.html They got a lot of track in a 3.3 ft by 5 ft layout without the...

thanks B, I haven't been able to find much on the Tropicana train, especially in the way of photos. If I am not mistaken there is a video about it, but I don't know who produced it and I could be wrong on that. Thanks again for the map.

Same thing with the Hobby Lobby near me. I asked a lady and she wasn't sure why they started carring more model railraod supplies. It is good though because there are not any Model Railroad shops nearby. I am going today to by a Tropicana car with my 40% off coupon.

I haven't posted on here in a long time. My interest in model railroading comes and goes, but I always come back to it. This, I guess, is one of my dilemmas. Anyway, I live in a small apartment now but I want to build a layout in the next couple of years and have already started gathering...

There are novelty engines like these of the Paducah and Louisville RR. http://www.railpictures.net/showphotos.php http://www.railpictures.net/viewphoto.php?id=91475

Sounds like he could sell the buildings pretty quick. Actually I might be interested in buying all of the scrap parts if he is interested in selling them. Looks like there might be a few in the last picture.

Wow !! Thanks. You really know your stuff. I am impressed. You have helped me out a lot. I am going to get that magazine. Thanks again.

Sorry. Under N scale track plans...it is the "Richfield and Fond du Lac Railroad"
