[quote user="Run the Town"] <p> I value your experience. I found a local hobby shop that will order the ss track at his cost. </p><p>He also said there was a local guy that runs his G scale engines on remote controls and all are battery powered ( they are were track powered until he converted them) since they do not pull that much juice, a battery pack will run about 4 hours or so. He said he done the wiring himself. Anyone heard of this method?</p><p>Do you all leave your setups exposed year around, ie. track buildings etc.? </p><p>[/quote]</p><p><span class="smiley">[#welcome]</span></p><p>Some local shop owners will let you have them at there cost! Now that said, always check the internet on the lowest price too. Not to say the guys a cheat just CYA. I to have a local guy but there more into smaller trains and it is just me that they know of in 1 county. So he lets me slide with discounts.</p><p>Battery power/RC is good to, have quick charge battery waiting pop it in and take the other to the charger and pop, off you go again cruzing down the rails! Quick change. And yes people do the wiring themselves, my self right now wiring one for track power.</p><p>Track is left out side all year but if you wish you can bring your buildings in if you wanted.</p><p>Toad</p><p> </p>
