I'm not an electrician but what is the difference between wattage, volts, and amps? What is the easiest and simplest way to understand this?
For example, each quadrant of my house has a 15 amp maximum. If I use a 10 amp power supply for my G scale train will this come close to blowing out a fuse?
Yes! It is possible. A layout that flips up and down can be made even for layouts that are 4 x 8ft. I originally wanted to make a 4x8 layout but my room does not have the space and that is why I made my layout only 3x6ft.
Thank you, but there is nothing in the Bachmann E-Z Command Plus instruction manual that shows how to adjust the volume. There is the function #8 which mutes the volume on or off.
How do I lower the master volume of my HO scale Bachmann DCC GP40 with the Bachmann E-Z Command Plus? The volume of my locomotive is very loud and it is hurting my ears. I don't want to run it silent, I just want to lower the volume in half.
Here is my interchangeable train layout that I can switch between N scale and HO scale. I can even hang the layout that I don’t feel like playing with on the wall like a picture frame. Each of these layouts have folding front legs and they can be folded down when not in use.
Can the HO scale Kato P42 really run on tight radius curves (15 inches)? Or is this a typo on Kato?
I'm referring to this:

I recently acquired a 9 inch long passenger coach car made by Life-Like from ebay. What is the scale measurement of this car in HO if it is 9 inches long?
I am connecting 027 straight tubular track to 031 curved tubular track. Can I solder them at the joints and will the solder hold up together or will it break?
