My first air brush was a Badger 200. Internal mix, and at the time $20 US. I currently use some Taiwanese made external mix brushes that cost...
With DCC, unless you are using pulse stretching to run a DC locomotive, the potential is one way half the time, and the other way for the other...
My point was that single color LEDs are cheaper. But I also meant that the LED could be put across the gap in one rail. That way, if the two...
Hello, I thought, maybe you could connect an LED and resister across the gap in one of the rails? Polarity unimportant. And then, if it's lit,...

Who makes trailers? Not the modern 40' ones, but the older 25' ones from the 40's and 50's. I know that Athearn makes them, and Tyco made them,...
