    Looking for a loco...

    Yes, all three units are powered. There's a tether connection between the first A and B units, and the third has it's own decoder. This way it an be run as an A, AB, or ABA setup. I have not seen zinc oxidation on any of my locos, but they've been packed away for a couple of years due to a...

    Looking for a loco...

    Just took this video. I had turned down the volume via DCC programming, so it's a little quieter than out of the box: Video is there, not sure why the thumbnail didn't show up. Hit play, it will ;)

    Roundhouse diorama

    That is looking amazing. I suggest hitting the figures with a coating of dullcoat as they are pretty shiny.

    Those D&RGW cars are cool! Had not seen those before. Something new to add to the watch list - if, being custom, they can be found. Thanks!

    A beginner's layout

    For scenery confidence I suggest watching Luke Towan on YouTube (https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCjRkUtHQ774mTg1vrQ6uA5A) - he shares some great techniques and approaches, and shows outcomes real-time, which is nice. Of course, he makes it look easy as he's been doing it a long time - practice...

    Newbie needs help

Defining what your goal is with your RR is also going to influence your decisions on what equipment your going to need (and can use). For example, if you're interested in switching operations, you may not need a...

    So, in looking at Faller's site, they say this transformer is for use on this product: https://www.faller.de/gb/en/Products/Theme-worlds/Fair/Fair-H0/pid.14.17.90.132/agid.1179/atid.1066/ecm.at/Transformer.html. The AC output amps at 16V is 3.15. Are you sure it should be 60mA? If it really...
