Hi,

I am trying to figure out how to assign the rail road numbers to these types of decorders for each of my trains.

( it appears that each decorder are set to manufacture specs ie. loco 0003, 0004) 

I have spent two hours reading and trying out different things. To be honest, I don't know what I am doing! ha..

I tried but getting a little frustrated.

Atlas n scale with lenz leo63xf installed

MRC prodigy express, hmmm

Thank you

Well, I am not sure if I should have put this on this forum, but here goes. I have installed a Tsunami drop in decoder into an Atlas Classic RS-3 and it sounds great. I removed the front weight as instructed, however, the speaker that was recommended, the MRC rectangular one in its own enclosure (which does sound realy good) doesn't really fit over the gear tower. I can get the shell on, but it pushes down on the truck so much that the rear wheels of the truck can swing freely when the engine sits on the track.

I'm heading to a local train swap meet tomorrow and am hoping to pick up the stuff I need to wire my layout. Basically,...here are the specs:

DCC Digitrax
Will have two powered blocks (layout divided into 2)
3 sections I can turn off and on to have locos sit
9 turnouts

Being the most electrically illiterate guy out there,...tell me what I need? What gauge wire, junction boxes etc. I do have the 9 switches for the turn outs but that is it!
Thanks!!

The rails at the base of a switch have gone out of gauge (confirmed with the NMRA N Scale standards gauge).  I've soldered track feeders to the base of the rails at this location, so it's possible I melted some of the plastic, although I was fairly quick with the soldering iron.  What's the best way to get the rails back in gauge?
