Norfolk Southern HO Passenger Cars The Business Train

The Norfolk Southern railroad issued a HO Bachmann Silver Series passenger car for their employees, I believe the year was 2007.  These NS passenger cars are hard to find. Has any other manufacture produced a HO NS passenger car for the public?

HO Elevated street car station?

Elevated Street Car/Trolley Station

Does anyone know of a design for a covered elevated trolley/street car station? I've seen a pic of one, but can't remember were. A covered station/stop with step down to the main level.

Street Running

What is the secret to making the trolley line or street running tracks look real? (so the ties are now shown)

Thanks

New Track Layout

Hello, I've started a new layout after 30 + years, Questions I have. Today's layouts have a lot of foam base over plywood.

Would you suggest laying track on the foam base or will I still use cork road bed on foam?

Can I use any of my old DC Atlas & Peco turnouts for DCC, if so what is needed to convert?

What is the ideal curve for my longer cars?

What is a good source for track design? or (custom design company)

Any ideas would help.

Thanks Homer
