For the Rio Grande road number 9043, can anyone tell me the Bachmann number and the type of engine?

General Discussion / Re: EZ Command repair costs

rich,

Already checked for power, it's OK.  The system shuts down when shorted.  DC engines have power, but do not move.  DCC engines do not spin up, but the functions work.  I don't believe the signal from the controller is getting there. 
I've put mine on the same wiring and plugs and it works fine.  (I really just plugged my friend's into my layout.)
Thanks for the effort.  Was hoping someone might have an estimate on repair or replacement.

General Discussion / EZ Command repair costs

I have a friend's EZ Command controller and it does not work.  It lights up but does not seem to have any output to the track.  My own works fine.  Does anyone know
what repair or replacement costs would be??

I have an 0-4-0T docksider that is missing rods and drivers.  Can the service department repair it?  I have had extremely good luck with your repair facility, but some engines can not be repaired, is this one?

Dave,

Thanks for the info.  I am also a member of the Lubbock Model Railroad Assoc.  We have over three scale miles of T-trak and our turns  are 11" radius.  My 4-8-4 Northern works fine on them.

N / 4-8-4 J turn radius
January 18, 2010, 11:09:04 AM
I've read (in several places) that the turn radius for the 4-8-4-J is  19 inches.  Is this correct?  I have also heard through various blogs that this is a hangover from HO and the it is 11.25 inches.    I'm itching for a 4-8-4 J but my layout will not handle the large curves.
