In February I believed I was done with model railroading. Done for good. I stopped working on the layout, I quit all forums I used to be active in, I didn't want anything to do with model railroading at all. I started packing up all the rolling stock (I always keep the original boxes) and entered everything in my inventory database. Then I took the hammer... and couldn't take the layout down. It looked terribly empty without trains but still I kind of enjoyed the way it was sitting there.

Hello everyone,

Can anyone tell me if Oregon Rail Supply is still in business? Site hasn't been updated in a long time. I did call and the message stated it was indeed the company and I emailed as well. If anyone has some definitive information, I would like to know.

Thank you all to those who reply!

I'm approaching the point where I need another bulk pack of Kadee couplers.  

Traditionally, I get the ones with the stamped brass centering spring (because that's what I've been accustomed to since I adopted Kadee as my standard decades ago).  But there's been a move to "whisker" type couplers for more and more of their product.

So what are your thoughts on the performance of Kadee #5 centering spring couplers versus Kadee #148 whisker couplers?

Both auctions for each ProtoThrottle package have now gone live on eBay. 

Go to www.iascaled.com/auction and click on one, or both, of the graphic links shown below. The auction will run for 8 days.
