Is it possible to remove the roof and benches to add weight between or under the benches?  If so, any suggestions would be appreciated.  Thanks.

What is the best glue and way to RE-set a hand rail that has come loose, totally.  Found it on the side of the track.  No idea why.

I have three of these, two right and one left. My design and plan for my EZ Track elevated, suspended layout calls for concealed motors/decoders/throws/wiring.  I would like to convert a pair (one left and one right) of my Bachmann EZ Track DCC turnouts to a different decoder and different motor.  

My plan is to use a Tam Valley Depot Micro Singlet servo decoder on each and a linear throw ultra micro 1.5 g servo in place of the motor and decoder on each turnout (a la an online video I have seen) and to install them in the space within the EZ Track base.

If anyone has suggestions, comments, or tips on this modification, please let me know.  

Thank you.

Each time I program a locomotive decoder on the main, it resets the turnouts or clears their programming so I have to reprogram the turnouts. This happens regardless of address of the locomotive I try to program. Is there a way to avoid this, other than not programming on the main? I have the set of turnouts set to accessory adress 3 to use a siding.

Please let me know if you have installed a speaker or speakers in a Bachmann 1860-1880 Passenger Car. I have opened it and see openings along the sides of the top of the roof, so am contemplating mounting a 16mmx35mm speaker and enclosure to the top of the car.

Should  I remove any of the horizontal plastic struts  in the ceiling where I mount the speaker to remove some obstruction to the sound? Should I seal the enclosure to the roof and use just the openings near the speaker or should I seal it to the ceiling and use the entire roof space and all the roof openings?

Or should I mount the speaker to the floor and relocate some of the weight?

(Sound is micro sd card based with 5v dc supplied from a rectifier/transformer activated and controlled by DCC decoder; car is a combine, Silver Series, unlettered green)

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Having sent in a defective ez command dcc turnout, I have been trying to check its repair status.  However, the repair status site does not recognize my password any longer and even though Irequest a reset and the site says a reset link has been emailed to me,no link appears in my email.   I have perhaps 10 Bachmann locomotives and 20 cars.  This absence of a way to communicate with a human is quite frustrating.

I have researched substantially so this is somewhat of an age old question.  However, I have two specific questions that I have not found definitive answers for.

This little locomotive stalls repeatedly over a frog on this one turnout.  It is the only locomotive I have that stalls on my track and this locomotive stalls only at the frog on this one turnout.

I am thinking it is the short wheelbase of locomotive (just barely longer than the frog?) on an unpowered frog.

Can I and should I power the frog?  Some posts in various forums say not to on a DCC layout.

I understand powering the frog involves connecting an existing black lead in the turnout to the frog.  If I can power the frog without burning down my house, is that the correct way to power it?

Thank you for responses.

Having never been to one of these shows before, I was curious if items are available for purchase or only being displayed/promoted?  Deer hunting shows I have experienced. The online photo gallery from WGH does not seem to show much inventory or displayed merchandise.

Do Tsunami2 or Econami 21 pin PNEM decoders directly plug in to replace Bachmann's sound value decoders in the tender?  Thanks.
