I found this one in one of my used train cars, it is definitely aftermarket but I can't tell what it is?p
Slot max
We have reached slot max a couple of times at our club. We know how to fix it when it happens, but how do you prevent it? We have read several ways to dispatch your throttle.

Layout Animation Ideas?
The teacher in charge of model railroad club has an abundance of basic DC motors simillar to the image shown. Does anyone have some ideas on uses for them in relation to railroads? I know there are many creative people here so I thought I would ask.

Progress on the Kingsbury Branch
Since the better half had to work Wednesday and I had the day off, I decided it would be a great idea to spend most of the day in the train room getting jobs done.
1) Finished installing all the hand throws and fine tuning the turnouts
2) Finished tacking down all the track that had been temporaily laid down to check for use
3) Got some more snipe signs and installed fascia around the layout
4) Installed another Digitrax Universal panel
5) Weighted some more cars until I ran out of pennies
Making your own insulated railjoiners?
