I have another half-baked idea, and I'd love some input, suggestions, or assistance.  I keep thinking about the throttles that are currently available.  They're either bulky, uncomfortable, complicated, expensive, or some combination of the above.  Then I think about other similar things in other applications, and they're none of the above.  I'd like to see a little more crossover.

Hello model railroad junkies...yes, you know who you (we) are,

This blog, named "Sitting There...", will be mostly about railroad software. Yes, we are armchair modelers.

I will not be giving reviews of railroad software. This blog will be a thorough discussion of how software programs compare against each other, and what we like or don't like about them. 

As I see it, there are four major categories of railroad software:

1. Train simulation programs

2. Layout design programs

I am having some trouble navigating this site. Just yesterday I saw an amazing post or blog about someone kitbashing D&H steam engines. Someone asked for an update on his progress, that was how I came across it. Now I can't find it. I don't know who it was that wrote the article and using the search yielded unsatisfactory results. So my question is twofold: What am I doing wrong and how can I find that post? Thanks in advance for any help.

Hi, I've got a couple of Brawa N gauge diesel locos (article 61004) of the German class 232.

I need to install some decoders (no sound - no room) and am trying to decide between Lenz Gold mini, ESU LokPilot micro V4.0 and an Uhlenbrock  decoder. I use Fleischmann Twin Center as my DCC controller.

Any recommendations/opinions.
