    Hi guys, I know there is a how to section here but the focus of this channel will be N Scale mostly. I hope to do one video a month or more if I can. I take emails with topic suggestions at random and try to explain what I know about the topic ( sometimes not much LOL) . I try to keep it simple. I hope this post is OK.

    Perfect and timely! Just started looking into doing this. Love the simple diagram too! Why can't all electrical schematics be like that (for those of us without an engineering degree)?? Actual pictures of a switch, for example, is right down my alley versus some weird symbol I have to look up to decipher. Thanks!!

    Should be interesting, as usual. I'll give this a watch come evening. Right now the sun is out, and I'm pruning the apple tree. Gotta be today, as there's supposedly rain and snow coming tomorrow afternoon.

    Mike, I watched the maintenance video. It is excellent.
    I have been a fan and subscribed to your n-scale YouTube videos since I saw the first one.
    It is a great service to modelers. Thank you again for your videos and for taking the time to support,
    enhance and promote this hobby.

    Right now I am using my PR3 ...with JMRI...here on the computer at my desk on a section of straight Unitrack. Its a pita to program a loco in here and have to go out and see if its ok...then run back in here and reprogram if necessary...and run back out there. As soon as I 'inherit' THE Wifes old laptop...I'll put JMRI on it and be able to use my 'deadline' on the layout for a program track while sitting at my workbench out there.

    :cool:
