C&S #1000

[Keith Hayes]

I have commenced adding Sound Cars to two more Waycars: 1005 and 1008. Things were going swimmingly until one of the wiper brackets was too wide. So I dug out  PC tie, filed it down and made a new one. We are waiting for the epoxy to set.

Now if I could just get the blasted programming track set up, so I can set the car numbers and increase the volume, we would be in business!

Wipers and marker brackets complete on two more Waycars. Whew!

What DCC system are you using, Keith. Doesn't it allow programming on the Main?

[Keith Hayes]

Digitrax.

But I want to program all the locos and Waycars the same without having to resort to hexadecimal. And adjust the volume.

I think it has to do with a serial port setting.  Blah.

  Jeff,

Where is that picture taken ?  I do not recognize the 3 tracks and background.

[Jim Courtney]

The photo that Jeff posted was taken by Lad Arend at Como in May, 1933.  The track beyond the caboose is the Denver mainline, I believe, diverging to the right toward Jefferson and Kenosha.
