Hi! I recently got back into Model Railroading (well, back in May), and decided to build an N scale layout. For the most part, everything has been moving smoothly so far. However, I came across a problem today that I don't know how to deal with. I am using Micro Engineering Code 70 track...

...With this engine? I haven't heard of any companies with a release of the 7400, but I haven't been keeping track. This one would be a great one to have! http://www.railpictures.net/viewphoto.php?id=353812&nseq=24

I'm modeling an MP caboose in N scale. But I cant find any good N scale detail parts. I'm looking mainly for stove chimneys, roofwalks, and brakewheels. Also, in N scale, what size of wire do I need to make handrails? The caboose is a Bachmann caboose that I want to put next to my station. Any...

I have looked through the Walthers catalog and haven't found a MP color. I'm trying to paint and decal a caboose for the MP but I can't find the colors. I will paint it with a Badger airbrush.

I'm looking for a DCC starter set and I am looking at NCE's Power cab, MRC's Prodigy Express, and Digitrax's Zepher. For all of you who own one of these systems, please tell me the pros and cons. Right now I like the NCE best, but I need to do more research.

Hi all, I'm new to the model railroad forums, but I've been over at railroad forums for almost 2 months. I am planning to build a 6 by 8 layout in n scale. It's my first layout and the table is already built. I want to make grades and I know Woodland Scenics makes foam risers. But I believe the...
