Actually both!

Actually, the test track on the right is powered by an MRC Twinpack, the layout by NCE PH Pro. But see that lil white box at the end of the test track? Inside is a DPDT switch that lets the test track run either  DC or DCC!

The PC just runs Decoder pro, and nothing else!Big Smile

I've tried different browsers on different PCs an still can't see them.

I'm in Australia and cannot get to intergate.com where he stores his photos. For any Aussies, I'm a Bigpond customer. They say its an intergate problem, but I don't believe them.

Guys, I don't know why you are having trouble seeing my photos. There doesn't seem to be anything wrong at this end or at Intergate.com.

I'm not sure if I have used this photo before, but it is an ALCO RS32.

How about an ALCO Steamer?

On pictures not showing.

I have noticed every once in a while, I will get the text but no picture. When this happens I refresh the page and the picture shows up.   My reasoning is, although I have nothing to back it up, that my antivirus stops the picture.
Just a thought. good luck.

Thanks Lee,

but I cannot get onto intergate.com (where the images are hosted) at all. I've tried different PCs and different browsers too.

One test I did said it was a firewall somewhere, but it's not mine, and if Jabear is also having trouble, it might be a firewall getting into USA. I'll just have to live with it for now.

Just got back on my computer from a minor crash.  Anyway, here's my oldest locomotive.  3, actually, that date from 1964.   The middle 2-8-8-4 with the engineer climbing down from the cab is actually the one I bought new in '64, the other 2 Yellowstones have been purchased since.

Like Jarrell said, show us yhour favorite photo of something on your layout.

OK, here she is!  First Sound Loco I have bought...  Sounds awful, so first item of business will be to shut it off (I will clip a speaker wire if i have to!).  Been wanting one for quite some time.  have been waiting for Bachmann to come out with a DCC ready painted, undecorated.  Not going to happen.  They say they don't sell.  Of course they don't sell, they don't make them....

Lookes like I need to do some dusting on this part of the layout.  Haven't touched anything over here in months and it shows.  Loco runs well at first glance (just put her on the layout tonight, arrived yesterday).  I will soon be stripping the NYC stuff off and decaling her for the SLOW.

Show me something else new.

Gidday All,

I'm possibly masochistic or stupid, or both, Confused but I 'd like to think that I'd have all of these running  with extra pick ups, DCC and possibly sound installed in the Cab forward at least.

I know that the response to KBKCHOOCH Karls' request has been slow but I find it very hard to believe that the forum is lacking in modellers with projects to complete in 2013 so, please show me a project that you want to see completed in 2013, or failing that one you'd like to start on.

Here is one from my website:

Pennsylvania Railroad F7A #9822 passes Berea Station at the head of a short freight as passengers board NYC RDC #53 for a trip into Toledo. The RDC is a Proto 1000, the F7s are Athearn BB kits which I repainted. There is a Soundtraxx DSC101-LC sound decoder and 1" speaker in the B-unit. The A-unit and the RDC have TCS T1 decoders.

Lets have another sepia or B&W photo.

This particular FP45 is now my Santa Fe #5941. Details on how this came about are on my website on the What's New Page.

If the above is acceptable, lets have another FP45.

Karl,

Your GP-38 and Geep 7/9's  look great!

Did you chop the noses on the Geep 7/9's and if so what did you use for number boards and windshields. I've got some Old Atlas GP-7's I want to convert to Paducah rebuilds, the hardest part is figuring out what to use for number boards and windshields.

Bob K I had no idea the thread would last this long.  I thought a few months at best.

Here's a depot scene as requested..

Show me another depot scene.

(edit)

Huh... pardon me for interrupting but when I wrote the word 'requested' above I did NOT make a link out of it.  But when I hit the 'post' button and the finished message came up, complete with photo, the word IS a link.  Upon hovering my mouse pointer above the word a small pop up appeared advertising 'check your credit score'  I did not click on the word.  I'm using Firefox,  is anyone else seeing this?

It looks like it only does it when I use Firefox.  I just switched back to Opera browser and the link is not visible.

Good grief.  When I did the 'edit' the word 'requested' wasn't a link anymore but the phrase 'check your credit score' was.

Not exactly what Brent requested, but it does have a tunnel. 

Please show the rear end of a train with caboose or observation car.

I see that you have sound. as you are showing two of your sub woofers.Big Smile Of course by now they must be full bass woofers.Laugh

Nope they grew up to be deadbeats just like the kid's!
And on that note, time for a new month, so let's see a new engine!
We have moved.
