Thank you for reading this.  I thought that i would throw out what I think I know and let the more knowledgeable correct my misinformation and thereby coalesce a useful body of knowledge.  Hopefully I can edit this thing after posting.

 Hi, My name is Steve, and I've been without a layout since 1992. 

Since then, there's been a virtual revolution in model railroading as far as operation is concerned. Something called DCC has made my throttle pack obsolete, at least I think.

Have you ever wanted video for your layout from the train's view but didn't want to set up one of the wireless camera transmitter / receiver sets?  I have one of the wireless sets; however, I receive interference (I believe from my neighbor's computer router) and the picture has annoying static and horizontal lines.

Here's a mural painted on the side of a BNSF abutment in Pinole, California.  It's labeled  "The Grand Canyon Line"  and seems to indicate that Warbonnet trains were a regular event in the San Francisco Bay Area. I'd sure apprecciate if some one could fill me in a bit about this.

I have some confusion about the use of the term "ACC" when used in a discussion or article about the use of a cyanoacrylate adhesive (CA). Where did the acronym ACC originate? It does not, IMHO, derive from cyanoacrylate. Is/Was it an acronym derived from a manufacturer of a cyanoacrylate product ? Perhaps I have not had the experience in the modeling arenas to have been exposed to this acronym. Is it a gel type formulation of CA ? Is it like the Slow Jet adhesive (as manufactured by Jet Glues ? (Not to be confused with Jet Blue )

Keep on trackin'
