    pr3

    You hook it up to a computer with JMRI, then to a programing track, and use it to program decoders. If you have a Digitrax system, it can be used as an interface between a computer, and the Digitrax command station. A PR4 is quite a bit better.

    Helix from Trackside Scenery

    AC6000 locomotives in HO scale

    A few years ago, I purchased a couple of BLI locomotves from a dealer on the eastern seaboard. I received the engines on a Saturday, but it wasn't until Sunday I had a chance to try them. As soon as I powered them up, they started generating smoke out of the exhaust. I sent a message through...
