I am planning an around-the bedroom DCC shelf module layout, and I am wondering how track is connected between modules without making too much noise in the gap, and how I can keep a continuous circuit going between the cracks. As for the duckunder, I want to build my layout around the wall...

I have an old Lionel GP9 missing handrails. Would my best bet be buying the parts from a dealer, or are there handrail detail parts available?

I have a room in my house that is 12x14 feet in dimensions, and has a small closet that is raised from floor level. I would like to build a modular layout around the room, but I am not sure what method to use. I don't want to use mod-u-rail, as it is so expensive. I am looking for a...

Looking at it as a future purchase, but I'm afraid it won't be detailed enough! Anyone have any words of wisdom, or have this engine?

My CAB-1 remote control has some electrical issues. Would it be better to get a new one or send the old in for repair? (think cheaper)

I would like to build a HO scale mod-u-rail layout around my bedroom. I choose mod-u-rail because it looks cost-effective and easy. Can anyone vouch for either of these statements, or testify your experiences with the system?

Today I finished wiring my TMCC system into my one loop of track on my 8 by 8 table. Everything seems to be in working order. I have two conventional engines, one of which is at the shop, the other which hasn't ran in about 2 years. With the Power Master, I followed the instructions to make my...

I want to airbrush my O scale GP9 for a custom paint job. I would like to use liquid mask for the windows, so I don't get paint on them. What kind of liquid mask do you guys use? How does it come off once it is applied? I have only heard of this product in books, and I've never seen it in...

I want to begin painting and airbrushing some of my own stuff, and I want a inexpensive airbrush. I paint O scale. What do you recommend? I'm looking for something cheap, of good quality. Also, what kind of paint do you recommend?

I need to know in order to properly install my lionel TMCC equipment.
