I like tea. (I am just not a coffee person) 

Now, my tea enjoyment can go beyond the cup...... and onto my model railroad! (Part 3 of my "Low (or No) Cost Ways to Enjoy Your Hobby" series)

Installing Detection & Signals on the JL&T...

This will be our new thread that will chronicle our Signaling Planning & Installation.  It may be a little out of step at the start but that's because the plan is still fluid at the moment as to what the end outcome will be.

Hope you all enjoy it and get something out of it.

Tsunami 1.5v bulb question

Hey guys.

Has anyone else used the 1.5volt circuit on a SoundTraxx tsunami for loco headlight/backup lights using SoundTraxx 1.5 volt or similar bulbs?  I have found the lights are very dim.  They aren't even noticeable when on the dimmed setting.  Am I doing something wrong or are they just very low output bulbs.  I could hook them up to the 12 volt contacts with resistors but i thought the whole point of the 1.5 volt contacts was to avoid having to do this.

Any help is greatly appreciated..   

Thanks

Brush Painting

I have to paint some small plastic detail parts for a structure I am building. When I moved 5 years ago I made a decision to toss my paint collection, something that I had collected over 20 years. I wanted to start fresh. Now that I am back into modeling, I regretted that the moment I saw that Testors killed Polly S and Floquil. I like solvent based paints for airbrushing and am going to try TruColor in the next few weeks. However, I need something that is Acrylic that I can use with a brush at my desk.

FREMO modular layout

Last weekend I visited a modular layout of a FREMO model railroader group in southern Germany. It was really great by dimensions and by quality!

different roads pulling same train

Why do I see trains with engines from more than one road. A couple of weeks ago I saw a train with a single KCS unit on point with 2 UP engines and 2 CSX engines behind. Is this some kind of alternative to getting a routing across a foreign road.
