On the top of the screen, to the right of the address bar you should see a buttno that looks like a torn piece of paper. Click it.  That should allow you to post.

It's more fun this way.  I'm going to say you need to change the least significant bit of CV29.  If CV29 is even, add 1.  If it's an odd number, subtract 1.  This will tell the engine to run in the opposite direction.

It takes an iron man to play with a toy iron horse.

*does his Great Karnak impression* I don't believe they offer model trains on layaway plans, or 30 year fixed mortgage payment plans.

Geez, never heard back from the OP again.

I wonder if he was the engineer on that runaway train heading in reverse right off his layout.  Laugh
