Any reviews on the N scale engine with sound yet or a release date?

I think I have created a lot more work than necessary for myself but what's done is done. I evidently misunderstood wiring for DCC. I have dropped track feeders after every third or fourth flex track section. But I insulated the track each time creating blocks that I don't need. I have just...

Just getting my track laid [N] and am almost ready to install a turntable. I have a new NCE system sitting in box never used. I've only used an Atlas turntable before. How do I wire a Walthers TT? Will there be a reverse loop situation if engine is turned 180 degrees? TT I have was given to me...

I'm using Atlas powered turnouts [N]. Someone mentioned I should use momentary switches instead of the provided Atlas slide switches. Anyone know of a site that carries these? I know of toggle switches but am not sure about momentary ones. Thanks.....Charles

I have many Atlas switches [N] that I don't have places for on my layout that I won't use. That's not my problem. I want to use as near flawless switches as possible. After experiencing some problems with my Atlas I'm now wondering about Peco switches. I don't have any experience with them...

I'm experiencing a problem with one car [so far] derailing at a switch most everytime going thru it. The pin seems to be high enough. Engines and other cars go thru without a problem. I'm using N Atlas code 80 track/switches. Not knowing this but do they sell cars with low profile wheels and...

I am laying a double main down [N] and see in Walthers a Peco Double Crossover w/electrofrog. I don't have any info about it so am not sure if it is what I need. Does the track thru the crossover only require power from adjoining track? Any info about it will be helpful. I have tortoise machines...

Are there any scenery tutorials available that anyone can direct me to? I have enough WS hills/mts made that I want to start painting etc. Not sure of the color or type of paint to buy. I've never attempted scenicing before. I was sure I have seen treads on this before but now that I am at this...

I have WS Inclines/Risers etc. glued down. I cut WS Plaster Cloth into 4" wide short strips and applied to the top with some over both sides of them. I will use the Plaster Cloth for terrain that will "connect to the edge" of the Inclines/Risers etc next is my plan. Question: Will one layer be...

I have many #6 remote Atlas Switches I bought approx. 20 yrs ago, some still in boxes. LHS tells me Atlas refined their switches around 1993. Do the newer ones work better than the older? I'm looking for reliability. Also how about using shorter switches in yards? Before I buy I would like your...

I will be needing an N turntable [motorized] in a couple of months. I don't know what is available. [I am not interested in any difficult kits] I only really know of Atlas but my past experience has been the motor is very noisy. Any help is appreciated, thanks.

Anyone have experience with Woodland Scenics Track-Bed [N]? I've used cork before but am starting over and am curious about Track-Bed versus any other track-bed type.

Sorry, I posted a question in "Technical Q & A" that looks like should have been posted here. Bear with me I'm new with posts. Kindly view there and respond if possible. Thanks

I need to paint blue sky and clouds around room, approximately 23' of wall space. There are two corners. Benchwork and top have been completed for years finally am attempting to build something more than just temporary track. Question: If I don't paint walls do I use something like masonite...

I haven't been active in awhile. I have checked in Chat Room several times never finding any activity. Is this common these days? Not that that area is my favorite but used to enjoy some of it when I was here before.

Have digital scale/weights and many rolling stock. Is there a proper method to take box cars apart to add weight? Then how to put them back together? First one I tried I must have broke something so top won't stay on. New at hobby. Thanks:)
