Mike, Where did you find the dimension data for the Run Cam 2? I didn't see it on the web site. Thanks, Scott

I'll be the first to admit their website is a little discombobulated at the moment but a little searching will eventually get you to what you're looking for. I just recently ordered some sets of the o

Bill, I'm not exactly in the Portland area (I live in Battleground, Wa.) but I work out of Portland (engineer for the U.P.). I have difficulty finding time to work on my own layout (RGS northern divis

On the U.P. they'd just put a 25m.p.h. slow order on it. 😉 Scott

David Hunt was having trouble getting in touch with Steve Hatch. I told him Steve's website might have been down for a day and to try again as I was able to access his site and send an email. Scott

Dave, Try again. I think his website was down the other day as I experienced the same issues, however I can get to his website today and just sent an email and it didn't bounce. Scott

Lawrence and Robert, Thanks for the information, I'll contact the museum. Thanks again, Scott

Michel, I'm using 9 gram servos under the bench work. These will be controlled by Dual Three Way III from Tam Valley Depot. Scott

Brian thanks, I think you're asking me how I kept the rail joiners I soldered on to the thinned PCB tie in gauge, correct? How I make these bridles is... I stripped the about 3" of ties off one end of

I'm wondering if someone here could point me in the direction of where I could find a track map of Ouray. I've found maps of the branch but not a map of the trackage in Ouray. Thanks, Scott

What I did was file down a PCB tie very thin, then solder two code 70 rail joiner on top and then trim to the width of the tie. I used code 70 joiners on code 55 rail to ensure the bridles would slide

Noice. Scott

Earl and Seb, Thanks, that was just the information I was looking for. It's amazing what a wealth of information there is here on these forums. Thanks again all. Scott

Ed, Thanks for the offer. You can send them to ftgc AT comcast DOT net. Scott

So is it safe to say that by the late 1920s most of the fleet had been converted to cylinder pistons and Walschaerts valve gear? The reason I'm asking is that I'm thinking of changing the period of th

Hey all, I was wondering if anyone here knows about or could point me towards information covering the evolution of the K-27s. I'm specifically interested in when their slide valves and Stephenson val

Coupler "bounce" as you describe it only happens on cars with cushioned drawbars (auto racks, lumber racks and some box cars for example) narrow gauge cars of 50's and previous did not have cushioned

David, I sent you an email a few days ago, and was wondering if you received it. I'm interested in one of the K-27s. Scott
