Large / Running two trains
October 20, 2014, 11:35:26 AM
I need someone to hold my hand here.  I've got two large scale trains with plenty of track.  I'd like to run them simultaneously.  Which is easier and less expensive... convert them both to RC, or use DCC? 

Which would you recommend?

Please detail for me extactly what I need to buy to accomplish what you recommend.  Didn't see much for sale on the bachman web site for this type of conversion. 

Thanks for all your help.

Large / Two trains on one track?
January 16, 2014, 02:57:55 PM
Is there a way to run two large scale trains on the same track independent of each other?

If not, what considerations do you have to take into account to run them simultaneously?

Large / Can someone tell me more about this set?
December 05, 2013, 08:14:16 PM
Can anybody tell me about this train?  I'm about to buy it on Craig's list and want to be sure it is a good one.  I have searched everywhere on the web to find something that looks exactly like it and I can't find it anywhere.

It says a bachman, North Star Express. 4-6-0.

I've attached a picture of the posting from Craig's list.  If you guys wouldn't mind commenting on it I'd appreciate it.

Here is a link to the picture:  http://i806.photobucket.com/albums/yy341/Colin_Conner/ScreenShot2013-12-05at70540PM_zps42c8bcbf.png

Thanks!
