Ok, here is my new thread and I want only those willing to help me to reply. Do not turn this into another flame war and get it closed. This is a PUBLIC forum. Thank you <br /> <br />I used to have a model railroad when I was a child that my father built for me. I now have a home of own and I am about to start my own model railroad. I have yet to build my table (benchwork) but I know already the space, dimensions, it will occupy. I am go to do HO scale, I want to incorporate DCC technology into my railroad, I plan on using Code 83 track, electric turnouts, the late 50’s early 60’s is the time era I’m wanting to do. I still have some rolling stock and engines from my childhood by they are analog engines and really don’t work <br /> <br />The help I would appreciate from those of you kind enough and willing to help is the following. <br /> <br />What are good manufactures for DCC, engines, rolling stock, track, scenery objects. I’d like to see some links of other peoples model railroads so I can see what’s all possible out there for me, what all can be done, help give me ideas and options. After I get my table built, what’s the next logic step I should take, etc… <br /> <br />If you need to ask me questions to better help me, please ask. I want to learn, I want a cool model railroad, it was fun when I was a kid and I want to get into again and it be fun. <br /> <br />So please if your willing, help me and keep this thread on topic. <br /> <br />Thank you. <br />
