{S-Scale List} Tonite is it!
For some reason, I've been struggling in replacing a decoder in my USRA Mike. I've always reached the point of everything doing fine until putting the boiler and tender shells into position. That's why I had asked about the capacitor a couple of days ago. I've found the problem! It was with the LED headlight. I had used a 3mm with the leads snipped short and run into the boiler front--I had coated the wire leads with liquid insulation. It had worked in the past, but when I hooked it up Tuesday evening the engine's chuff sound went crazy with the engine just sitting there. Is is sort of like if you turned on the water in the bathroom sink and your outside sprinkler system turns on--in other words it didn't make sense! Anyway I unplugged the headlight wires and things were okay. So I then removed the LED and installed one of those surface mounted super-miniature units as a replacement. I re-installed the boiler last night and things are pretty much solved. I did burn out the forward headlight function, so I've reversed the engines front to back CV and now use the rear light function as the forward light--a few minutes of work but it saves a repair session back to Durango. Tonite I'll add the pilot and trailing trucks and be running trains again--fingers crossed! I've done many successful DCC installations but this one was pretty sneaky. Bob Werre BobWphoto.com Yahoo!

Re: {S-Scale List} Re: Tonite is it!
George, I mounted the speaker in the 'traditional' place facing down in the tender. I used either a speaker from Litchfield station or one from Railmaster--I bought from both companies close to each other. With my Pacific I was able to put the decoder in the engine, which cuts down somewhat with the number of wires between tender/engine--always a good thing! I used some double sided foam tape and fastened it on top of the gearbox. My Mikado didn't have that kind of room without doing a bunch of brass surgery! Good luck.

My Berk, 2-10-4's and Niagara all have room for a bass reflex speaker in the front of the boiler - that cannot be beat!

{S-Scale List} Decals
Mike, Decals can require much different strengths of setting solution depending on the film used. Solveset is by far the strongest right out of the bottle. I almost never use it. Start with the Microscale blue bottle and work up through the Microscale red bottle to see how things go. Solveset can turn your decals into a blob of goo in a blink of an eye..

Hi, I'm Mike, and I'm a train addict. HO in my teens, N scale in adulthood, but
my eyesight isn't what it used to be, and I'm seriously thinking about going
upscale. S scale intrigues me because it's off the beaten path, and the size
seems just about right. I can handle an airbrush, and I've scratchbuilt a
structure or two, so I can live without gazillions of commercial products.
But I have one big concern. My friendly local hobby-shop owner feels that the
available S-scale turnouts are unreliable. (He used a stronger word, but you
get the idea.) Has anyone else had a bad experience with turnouts?

Mike, Welcome to the group. We love newbies especially if you are coming from a smaller scale! If you intend to go SCALE meaning not using American Flyer or hi-rail wheels, and use code 70 to 100 I would recommend Tomalco http://www.tomalcotrack.com for flex track and turnouts. If you previously liked to make your own turnouts you could consider Fast Tracks. http://www.handlaidtrack.com/s-scale-a/172.htm I am making my layout bigger now and am using both.

Re: {S-Scale List} Decals
I suggest using some thin styrene to make an alignment template.

Bill,
Thanks as the decals are from LBR. He recommends to use Solvaset, so I am
assuming it will work okay with this film on the decal.
My real question was how to position the decal.
Just position it until it looks right to you? meaning me of course, as it will
be the same decal on both side.
I have used Solvaset on his decals in the past with no problems of the decal
falling apart.

Re: {S-Scale List} decals
Bill, Thanks, as my terminology in the train world is not the greatest. I take it rivets are the little bumps on the side of the car like picture here. http://www.flickr.com/photos/34086110@N06/5067517447/ Okay, using these rivets on the car, yes, I see that would work in counting the rivets on both side to be the proper place. thanks!!!

Re: {S-Scale List} Re: Misc. for sale
Ted,
That is a great price on the EM-1 but being retired and having already
committed
to a RR 060 pushes it beyond my budget.will I had the money because that is
a great deal. If you don't sell it in a reasonable time maybe we could work out
some payments spread out over time.
Sorry

If you can scratch build a structure you can scratch build a switch to suit your exact needs just like modelers have done for decades in HO scale. Only difference is it's easier in S scale cause the parts are a bit bigger and easier to handle.dave Yahoo!

Start with the Microscale blue bottle and work up through the Microscale red bottle to see how things go. I would agree with the micro scale process if one is not sure about their decaling skills. Solvaset can be diluted with water but it takes some experience while the micro scale system is pretty fool proof. This is assuming you have a smooth glossy surface to decal on? If it's rough I'd use future under the decal with no setting solution needed although that's something that needs to be practiced on test shells before doing a keeper car.dave Yahoo!
