Holiday Greetings

Taking a moment to wish all of my model railroading "family" a Merry Christmas and a prosperous and Happy New Year. May all your signals be green, trains arrive on time, and consists be full of merchandise for your customers.

Peggy and I will be heading to South Carolina to visit the N Scale empire of my brother and enjoy the holiday with my dad, the Senator, who gave me the gift of signing for me (underage at the time) to work on the Nickel Plate Road with him during summers between semesters.

Grab iron templates

Are there any mounting templates out there for mounting the grab irons on Bachmann GP7/9, RS-3, or S2/S4?

I've considered getting some of these locomotives but having to guess-the-grab placement is a bit of a deterent.

         

                               Thanks in advance, Skoti.

HO Atlas Photo-etch Roof Walk?

I've got an unpainted Atlas HO ACF 6 Bay Cylindrical Covered Hopper (3960 cu. ft. Center Flow) that I want to add a better roof walk to.  Does anyone know if I can find a photo-etch replacement roof walk for this model?  I also need a decal set. 

cleaning brass models

What is the best way to clean a brass caboose model. Was there a forum on this before?

Thanks

Laser Cut Kits - Comment on Glue

I received my first laser cut kit a few months back and went looking on the web for the best glue to use to assemble it. I found lots of suggestions all with drawbacks I could not live with or very expensive. I decided to strike out on my own and tried a product I was very familiar with for holding all kinds of odd stuff together.

No real place for railfanning in the forums so I though I would share this winter pic I took of some UP cars headed to the Ford plant in Louisville

Programming QSI Titan

I recently got my first QSI equipped loco.  http://eurekamodels.com.au/R.html

The only way I could change the number from 3 to 704 was by programming on the main but even on the main I can't read CVs using my NCE pro cab or decoder pro.

Is there a list of the various methods for programming these decoders?
