Its been real. Thanks, to all that gave advice and helped out. Due to conflict with management here I am turning in my keys figurativly speaking, and canceling my subscription to MR. Peace.
Yup, last spring I was bidding on a Bachmann Spectrum DDA40X and set my max at 250.00. I was shocked when it sold for 450.00. Good thing I lost cause now they will be available for $125 some time this month. ;)

Money is an ussue since I still have five or six hundred dollars in structures to purchase, thirty seven more DCC decoders to buy, and 45 turnouts to get

I was looking at getting the Life Like remote control switches because they are currently only 25 cents more than the manual Atlas Snap Switches.

Did you buy paper for an Inkjet or Lazer printer? If for inkjet you just print off your graphics onto the paper, spray a poly-urethane clear paint on them, let dry, then apply.
