Badger Model Flex Paint Online Stores?
Anyone have online sources for Badger model flex paint, so I can compare prices?
I found some on US Airbrush supply when I was looking for quick disconnects for my airbrushes. The list price is $2.55 for an individual bottle, and if you buy the sets it drops down to $2.40 a bottle.

The first train for over a year runs on my layout
Hello,
dunring the last few days I wired the track of my Lochdubh terminus. Now I can concentrate my efforts for the turnout motors. I plan to use servos, in combinations with the MERG Servo 4 board. Today I could run the first locos and trains since January 2017 on my layout.

Detection Section Help (For Signaling)
I am hoping a more experienced person will be willing to look at my track plan. I am setting up detection sections which will be used for signaling in the future. I'm not sure if this is correct/accurate when it comes to the sections near the switches. I wast to be sure before I cut any gaps. I am not sure if I have too many/not enough or if the sections breaks are to close or far away from the switches. I want to limit my detection sections to 32. I am using AnyRail.

Radius
A couple questions. 1. What is the minimum radius for a helix in HO scale?
2. Would a broader radius reduce drag?
ESU LokProgrammer Problem
Recently I've been installing LokSound decoders in my engine fleet. To program those decoders I have the ESU LokProgrammer which I really like, and am running the latest updates to the software.
