Thanks to everyone for your help. I have used these sites on a regular basis ever since you let me know about them.

Andy, thank you for the recommendation. I did join the "yahoo" forum as you had suggested. The other evening, I spent a number of hours just reading a few of the messages that those folks have recently shared. Wow, I was staggered by how much that I learned about the G&D and John Allen (and I...

I failed to state that my ".bmp" drawing source has been from "TrainPlayer" software.

I use XTrkCad4. I have also had good luck pulling down ".bmp" drawings with good detail for replicating layouts.

I would like to see your spreadsheet of N-scale equipment that you have for sale. This is my first time on a message board. How may I contact you privately (so I don't give my e-mail address to everyone?
