    Cheap Spray Foam Risers - I need the info

    I think what the OP is looking for was around here somewhere but it linked to another MRR site that you had to create an account to see. FWIW, all that other site had to offer was the screen shots. In lieu of that (these are the cliff notes) . . . - Use two plywood type boards wider than the...

    Installing n scale switch machines - manual and remote

    So if the alignment is slightly off I have to hit the button twice. I know, I get it, but you aren't telling the turnout what way to go, you're toggling it to get it in the right direction. The ridiculous example would be, I want to turn my bedroom light off, twice, you can't do that with Tam...

    Installing n scale switch machines - manual and remote

    I thought peco had brownish tie's though, not sure how that would look vs the black ties from atlas, any opinions on that?

    Code 80 Flex Track

    Back after several years away, forums forgot who I was it seems :). Some names around these parts are familiar though. Is it just me or has Atlas code 80 flex track disappeared. I couldn't find it at my local hobby shop, I've checked around the typical online retailers and all seem out of...
