Upgraded TIU to 5.0 and hooked up WIFI DCS box this past weekend. Ran trains using an old ASUS 10 inch tablet, Samsung 7 inch tablet and Samsung smart phone. Was able to operate 4 trains simultaneously. Think I'm going to like it..........Jim

Its a Schecter. There is also an Ovation further back in the corner........Jim

Bob, The layout in the video is Ed Headingtons and I always enjoy our get togethers when I visit Florida.......Jim

Rumor is that someone purchased Crest and it will open in a few months........Jim

The Corwall RR traveled to Florida to quarry sand........Jim

John, I like. I have track resting on wall block that can use some leveling. Thanks...............Jim

When i unboxed these, my wife asked to hold one. She loved them. Then she made me put one on the fire place mantel for the rest of the day so she could look at it........ Jim

Joe, stop by and i'll let you hold one.........Jim

Second "B" unit to be delivered tomorrow...............Jim

Yesterday I ordered 2 bottles to try. Wife still says no smoke in the house, darn........... Jim

Well, I'm glad to see everyone gave up smoking.................Jim

Closing Announcement Last day is August 29th Noon August 29th will be the last day to place an order on the website. Back Orders and Pre-Orders furnished to us on schedule from our vendors through the first week of September will continue to ship as arrived with all services to be discontinued as of Septmember 9th 2016. After an exhaustive effort to offer the business for sale now for quite some time for merely the cost of it's assets (no real estate) and even though this business can be located anywhere we have been unable to find a buyer in this economy. NYS Regulated health care costs, mandatory minimum wage demands and a list of regulations that never seem to end have made it easy for us to make the decision to retire.

Closing doors at end of August..........Jim

My fix was to install new piece and added washers to distribute stresses............Jim https://goo.gl/photos/xrDaTciicSaHi2xr5

I considered it for my PRR Heavyweights but they were known to have severe motor problems and the ad did not talk about upgrading the motor. ..........Jim

What do people prefer for smoke fluid and are they safe to use in all makes of engines. I keep looking at Mega Steam. Is it any good and worth the money. ...................Jim

Video pulling freight.

John, This is not the standard AA pair sold by MTH. It is two stand alone A units each with sound and each with proto couplers on front and rear. The sound is amazing from two units......Jim

Chuck, Right now i do not plan on buying matching coaches. I already have two sets of MTH for D&H and PRR. I'm more of a freight guy. Just came in from running freight. May post vid later. It is hot outside today....... Jim

Jens, Already thinking the same thing. And of coarse with 2 master A units I can do 2 AB lashups.........Jim

Raymond, You are just saying that because I purchased them from Ray's Electric Trainworks. Thanks for your great service. I'm going to enjoy this set and no you can not have them back. My wife even asked to hold one. ........Jim
