Atlas Silver FM Train Master DCC Light Conversion
Good evening...I'm working on converting an Atlas Master Silver locomotive to DCC/Sound. Question is, can I use the light boards that come installed or do I need to find a lighting kit for the conversion? Been awhile since I did a decoder install and this is the first of these light boards I've encountered. Any suggestions would be helpful for sure. Thanks!

MRServo now on GitHub
Just a note that we moved the MRServo switch machine design over to GitHub:
https://github.com/IowaScaledEngineering/mrservo
The design files and source code were previously available via zip file and SVN, but now should be more convenient to access for those of you who might want to build your own.
1950s German/Austrian HO Scale Cars and Locomotives
I have been going through bins of HO model trains that I have been storing for 30+ years. Included in the bins are a bunch of German/Austrian trains that my dad got when he was stationed in Germany in the mid-1950s - locomotives, freight cars and passenger cars, mostly Kleinbahn brand, but some Fleischmann and Marklin.
I took pictures of everything and sent it to Trainz.com and talked to Carlie there - they say they will look at them and give me a sense of what they might be worth and if they can sell them.
