JMRI Decoder Pro Setup Mac?

I am looking for help on how to set up the JMRI Decoder Pro Software for a Mac. It is a MacBook Pro running the most recent operating system. I am using the NCE Powercab system and the USB interface. I am looking for help on how to set this up as I am having trouble. I would check the JMRI Yahoo group but can not access it since my school has is blocked.

Thanks,

Has anyone had experience with the Walthers Street Sections

Has anyone had any experience with the Walthers Street sections? I am looking into them and was wondering if they are a good quality and easy to use/worth the money.

First kit build attempts..

Took home two Accurail Center flow hoppers to work on today from the club meeting. As usual I forgot to take pictures (getting 6th graders to sit down and stop being grabby is harder than herding cats) with all the chaos, but here at home I got some. Overall it is a good kit but getting the detail parts in was a pain and a screwdriver/drill is a useful tool for making them larger.

EDIT: Changed name since adding more cars.

How to get the Member Bonus Downloads on a mobile device.

I was trying to get/look at some of the September downloads but it just opened a new blank tab. Is it possible to get them on a mobile device or no? and could we get some videos that work well with a Mac, I always have to open it with the VLC converter when on a computer.

Old UTLX Prints

My Grandparents have some old items from their father who worked for UTLX. I am not sure if they will be worth anything but they are simillar to postcards though slightly larger and have different photos/printed paintings of UTLX tank cars. I believe they only were available to older staff as I can not find them anywhere online. If anyone has information on these I would greatly appreciate it (sorry not photos at this time)
