Wow, thanks NKP.

My wife and I are going to be in Portugal at the end of May this year. I've done some digging around and found information on the narrow gauge lines in the north around Porto and the Duoro. The tram museum in Porto will be a definite stopping point. Does anyone have any other points I should...

Now that's cool. Dave

Andrew, Interesting info about your grand father. I've got the PBS show on tape and that's where I first saw the DH Rwy. Then I did a search on the world wild web and found the links I listed. Its certainly is a neat little railway. It would make an interesting model rwy. Dave

Darjeeling Himalayan Rwy Do a google search on the Darjeeling Himalayan Railway and you'll find a really neat operation. Its affectionately known as the Toy Train. Here are a couple of links: http://www.kurogane-rail.jp/india/edarj5.html -great pic of tight turn- really looks like a model...

Thanks again Peter. I think I'm developing ADD or "half-hiemers" as I keep flipping back and forth on scales. The track is code 100 and I've decided to give some On30 a go. Right now I'm taking the mechanism from an old cheap diesel that I've used in a scratch/conversion interurban I did a...

Peter, Nice job, I particularly like the stone bridges. What did you use for snow and is it glued down or just sprinkled on? Dave

I'm just getting back into model rr'ing after a hiatus of about 8 years. The layout I'm working on is a small switching layout in HO and I'd like to make it a winter theme. While surfing the world wild web I've come across a couple of Z scale layouts with great winter scenes. But doing...

Hey shaygetz thanks. The throttle I have on the layout right now (track just getting layed) occassionally drops voltage in one direction. I looked at the handheld component and a resistor has come loose and I'm not quite sure where to solder it back. As there's are only two components in the...

I've dug out an throttle I built back in the '80's from an article in Model Railroader. Unfortuantely most of my mag collection was damaged by a flooded basement and I've had to get rid of them. I'm hoping that someone might have a copy of the following issues and could scan the wiring diagrams...
