thinner for Rapido Proto-Paint?
Has anyone come up with a thinner suitable for Proto-Paint? I've had really bad luck using either an Iwata double-action or an old single-action Paasche airbrush.

Athearn Genesis Parts,.....(fuel tank molding)
Has anyone had experiences trying to get parts for an Athearn Genesis engine?
I recently purchased online a Genesis FP45 diesel loco in HO scale. The seller failed to tell me it was missing the fuel tank molding. Can I get one?

Atlas Curved Cord Bridge
I've been a fan of these Atlas bridges for quite awhile, including when I put several of them on my first layout, the Central Midland. They are made by Roco of Austria, and are a fine quality product.
On that original layout I sought out a double wide modification, and in that particular case I did not include the bottom deck floor portions. I also double-upped on that upper bracing piece
New Loco - purchase with or without DCC/sound
I'm getting ready to purchase a new locomotive. As is the case with new locomotives today, I have the choice of DC and adding DCC/sound with after market product, or purchasing with DCC/sound. It's a newly released model, so a 21 pin connector is readily available.
I am going DCC on my layout, but new to DCC in general and I really don't know much about which decoders/sound are preferable, least hassle, etc. I can tell you that the DCC option is paired with ESU LokSound.
Creating Waybills
A question was asked about how to create "waybills", I moved it out of the thread on the existing article.
Part of that question depends on what type of waybills are you creating (2 move, 4 move, prototype, waybills for a particular software package, etc.)
Generally what I do is I use a spreadsheet to organize the effort.
I list each station on my railroad.
I list each industry/track/spot at each station.
