Thank you for all the info. I do have one more question and I know this a Bachmann forum. I have the Bachman 5 amp booster and a Bachmann reverse loop module. I'm thinking of buying a Digitrax Zephyr Xtra Starter set controller. My question is will my Bachmann stuff work with the Digitrax system? I have asked Digitrax support people and did not receive a answer, because they did  not know about the Bachmann systems, but was told they think they will work. Is it compatible?

Thank You for the info. I have inventoried my Bachmann equipment. I have the following: 1-#44902 E-Z Command Control System, !-#36507 E-Z Command DYNAMIS Wireless Handset, 1- #44912 E-Z-Command 5 Amp Reverse Loop Module, and 1- #44910 E-Z Command 5 Amp Power Booster. As I said earlyer I plan to have at least 20 Loco's with me controlling 3 or 4 at a time. I do not plan to get any bigger in the future. Do I have enough equipment and/or would Digitrax equipment work better? I would attach my layout, that I laid out on RR-Track Software, but I do not know how to attach.
Thanks again for comments

HO / DCC Control
March 20, 2011, 07:09:42 PM
I am about to build a layout. I want to operated it as a DCC controlled layout. The equipment I have is all Bachmann. I was at a train show in Lacrosse today and talked to a club, which is run with DCC control. The member tells me That I should use "Digitrax" equipment, that it is the best and will allways work with old equipment as they upgrade their equipment. How do you all feal about this? I plan to have about 20-25 loco's which I would run at the most 4 at a time. I don't think that I need an costly system. Thoughts?

HO / Circuitron Tortoise Switch Machine
August 05, 2010, 02:39:47 PM
Can the Tortoise machines be used on Bachmann Turnouts? If yes, are there any articles with pictures/instructions available? I have both DCC controlled and remote controlled switches. I'm thinking on converting just the non DCC switches with the Tortoise. Does this make any sense?

I'm building a small HO layout for under the Christmas tree. I will have a small mountain, and I want to make it a winter scene. What is the easy way to make snow or what company has snow, or can I make my own snow.
Thanks for the help, John

HO / Cutting EZ track
June 03, 2009, 11:54:41 AM
I have a layout software and I been using EZ track except were I need special lengths and curve,s to fit, then I use the Atlas library that has software to cut straight and curve track. The question I have can I cut EZ track to lengths and curves and will they fit with standard EZ track? Is there a method to connect these tracks?
