Bob: stick with KD's, you can not go wrong. Our club got a deal on some McHenry's to try out for one of the local hobby shops. Experienced problems with them after a short while so it was back to all kd's. <br />As Charles says KD has a great web site, you can get a list of all the equipment and what KD is the proper one for it. They may be a little more money but when properly adjusted you can not beat them. For the small switching layout I do not think you can go wrong. As far as any of the magnets go just follow the instructions that come with the magnet. I use between the track ones where there is a road crossing, otherwise I use under the ties ones. Just dig down below the rails to the thickness of the magnet, glue some stained ties to the top of the magnet, I use Walthers goo, then slide the magnet in its spot and put the track over top. The balast will cover the magnet. If you plan and place your magnets properly you will lots of enjoyment switching the layout. <br />Web site: www.kaydee.com <br />Ron.
