Can someone tell me if the couplers on it are compatable with Micro Trains & Atlas Accumate couplers?
I know some of the couplers they use are not.
The information M.B. Kliens has on it says it has "knuckle couplers", but I'm not sure if that means they are compatable or not.
I would like to have one, but not if I have to change out the couplers.
Also I would like to know what brand decoder is in it, & if the CV values can be read by a Digitrax Super Chief System.
Thanks for any help anyone can provide.

I have an FT A/B set. I just installed digitrax decoders in both. The B unit runs much faster than the A.
(much more so in reverse) What effect,harm, will this have on the two when coupled together?
Does anyone know how to speed match them so they will run at the same approximate speed. I fear damaging my A unit by having the B unit "pull" it.

Thanks for any help.

I am trying to determine the pro's & con's of using flex track almost exclusively for my layout.
I am planning on using Atlas code 55.
I like the idea of not being tied to the sectional radius & not having so many joints, but wonder if I will encounter problems I have not anticipated.
Any help will be appreciated.

This question may be so elementary, I am almost embarrassed to ask it. But I must.
Is there a "right or wrong" direction which a train should run on a layout? (Clockwise vs. counterclockwise)
I believe I have seen them running both ways.

I am in the planning stages of my first layout. (N scale) & would appreciate some advice.
It will be a rural scene. I hope to have some grades, tunnels, ravines, bridges, etc.
How big would you suggest I go? I want it to be big enough to include the above (& feel a sense of accomplishment when I finish it) but not so large that I get  discouraged before I finish it.
I will be running a 4-6-6-2 & a 2-8-8-2.
Thanx in advance for any advice you can offer.

To the "Bach Man" (or anyone with the answer)
Now that I have retired, I am hoping to find the time to build my first layout. I want to have a mountain scene (with as much grade as possible) & pull as many cars as possible.
Which of the Spectrum N scale steam locomotives will give me the most pulling power and be the most suited to my needs?
Also which are the most dependable?
Thanks in advance for any input anyone can give me.
