It looks like I may have to. Thanks, Stan

I'm not asking about the pier set but a regular bridge. The few that I've seen say they won't work with EZ track. Any suggestions? Thanks, Stan

That's the one! I just watched it again and they did mention the name Bragdon. Thanks. Stan:thumb:

I was watching Working on the Railroad on DIY channel and saw they were using fairly large rock molds (about 2X2) and was wondering where I could find these. The DIY webpage didn't say anythiing. Anyone seen these? Thanks, Stan

Just painted a sample with and without primer. Both came out great so now I've got some extra primer! LOL Thanks for the help guys. :thumb: Stan

Unfortunately, those of us CA can't find the pink stuff so I ended up using the white. Does anyone have suggestions as to how to paint this? I'd like to paint the whole thing brown but do I need a primer? Any help? Thanks, Stan

Thanks guys! Used wood glue last night and it worked great. Appreciate all of the information. Stan

Just bought 2 2" 4X8 sheets of styrene and had a very simple question: Can I just use carpenters glue for putting them together? Thanks, Stan

I think I read this one a thread here but couldn't find it. It was talking about order from thinking to having finished a layout (or as finished as you can get. LOL) Can anyone point me to the right post or have your own suggestion? Thanks, Stan

Just finished the rough outline for the layout. I'm using plywood, HO and EZ Track. Should I paint the plywood (brown/green for appropriate areas) then lay the track or vice versa? I know that it would be a lot easier without the track, which seems to me the way to go. I've also read that...

At this point (just starting my layout) I'm either thinking of making my own or buying the ones from Bachman. (either the 14 or the 8 piece set.) Any suggestions as to which one?? Thanks, Stan

Where do you start the first riser? Where they first are joined? The middle? (I'm using HO) Thanks, Stan

I am talking about this. http://www.bachmanntrains.com/home-usa/catalog/image/products/44565_thumb.JPG Hopefully that helps. Thanks, Stan

Do you nail or glue it? (Sorry if this is the dumb question of the week!) LOL Stan

Andrew, thanks so much for the link. I missed that one when I did my search. Since this is going to be my first layout, along with all new everything, it seems to make sense to go with the DCC system. My preference, after doing a lot of reading, is leaning toward Digitrax Zephyr. Thanks to...

Thanks Russ for pointing out about the brick. I didn't realize that. And thanks to all of you who gave your input. So, should I buy the WS Building section of the River Pass layout? I think there are 15 different buildings. I know there are plusses and minuses for both. Any opinions? TIA Stan

Thanks. I have the money now to buy all of the equipment, trains, layout now so I just figured that DCC would be the logical step to take. Stan

I'm almost ready to set up my set using WS River Pass. I may modify it a little bit. Should I start with DCC even though it's going to have at most 2 trains? Is there a "rule" that one decides DCC over DC? Thanks, Stan

I'm about 90% sure of going with the River Pass layout (with a few modifications) and since the buildings are separate, was wondering what you guys thought of the 2 companies. Thanks, Stan
