Biking the Rails - so cool!

Mon, 2018-10-01 09:30 — rgs_info

While on a vacation last month, we tried 'biking' a railroad right-of-way, with bikes that runs on the rails.  It was really fun, and a great way to experience the right-of-way and terrain.  Move details & photos on my blog:

Hello everyone,

I am looking for recommendations on heavyweight and lightweight HO passenger car diaphragms. Detail and price are important concerns but functionality is not.

Thanks.

Save a whole thread as pdf

Sun, 2018-09-30 09:09 — vggrek

Here is a way to save all the pages of a thread in pdf file. I chose the most transparent way to do it, a batch file and trustworthy apps.
It could be done more versatile to select pages and with the ability to be used in other forums too, but i don't know if anyone will use it.
Anyway this is for now.
 i added the pdf from the thread

Bachmann Speed Controller #44213

Sun, 2018-09-30 06:13 — Airbus

Hello all,

I use a Bachmann speed controller #44213 without any problem. But I have a question about it:

Is it a PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) controller ? I think so but I'm not really sure.

Many thanks for all your replies.

Minnesota Transfer Railway Map(s) and Details

Fri, 2018-09-28 21:40 — Photo Bud

Looking for map(s) and details of the Minnesota Transfer Railway and the interchanges with other lines, specifically NP and CRIP. I have been Googling for the last hour and cannot find anything except references to "Gateway to the Northwest - the Story of the Minnesota Transfer Railway" which I cannot find offered for sale (and probably couldn't afford anyway!). I am hoping to design a location for my model railroad that could at least allude to a real location.

Thanks for any help!

Bench Power Supply "Lab Grade"

Bench top Power Supplies.  I know what they are and how useful they can be.  They output a voltage and an amperage that you can control independently from one another.  Particularly useful for when you are making decisions on how to power an item before placing it on the layout.
