The speaker on my Broadway Limited NW2 with a QSI decoder has a cone that separated from the voice coil.  Does any know what impedance (8 or 16 ohms) the decoder expects to see in the speaker?   The literature I have found doesn't seem to indicate which it is.

Thanks for any help on this.

As I mentioned in a previous post, once I was satisfied that a model railroad produced good chemistry in my classroom, my initial thought was to add a simple yard module so that trains could actually arrive on the Inglenook from somewhere, and to develop the industries which were now just empty car spots. Even those two things, I realized, would provide many additional dimensions and allow us to incorporate a more robust rationale for the distribution of specific car types.

I need advice on options for a covering below my layout fascia to hide storage. Below is a photo of how the area looks now. I’ve seen many different approaches and I’m interested in hearing what others have used and the pros and cons (if any) of their choice. 

As a boy growing up in St Matthews, Ky (East of Louisville) I drove past Palmer Asbestos during the 1950's and 60's dozens of times.  The building is memorable to me because of it's large smoke stack with "PALMER" lettered on it vertically.  I'm going to ROUGHLY model this on my layout by kitbashing Walther's "Gas Plant".  Notice that I said roughly....and that's because I am only going to do enough to satisfy my fuzzy memory of the building and it will be severely compressed because of my small available real estate.
