Lurking some to get back to rebuilding my suspended railroad. Life came up and caused me to be away a few years. I find myself having to relearn DCC from the bottom up. RCShadow

I just won this on eBay for $51. I hope I did not make a mistake but the wife liked it a lot. It does have DCC and lighting though.
