    Abandoned lines on layouts

    I know of several abandoned rails and structures. As soon as I get to them and learn how to upload them I'll post them for you. I travel the lower 48 states regularly for work. So I've slowly been trying to get pics for my layout. I'm more than happy to share with whomever needs or enjoys them.

    Which DCC system?

    Hello, I'm new to the forum and to model trains. Except when I was about 3-5 years old my dad had a 'lil one. I'm starting to accumulate parts and pieces to start a layout. I know that everybody has a different opinion on this, but what is the best DCC system? I'm wanting it to be sort of...
