Great time for trip to Arizona, Cody. Bring David too. Another informative episode. Ever use Vallego Air paints for weathering? They are great also.

6

The old school John Allen method of a square of masonite attached under a boxcar does a nice job of cleaning the rails, too.

Dear Cody,

This is a good episode.

I had two questions. My first one is, Is there a substitute for Scalecoat 1 Sanding Sealer. I just to not want to bake the model in the oven, and then assemble the rest of it.

My Second question is, When will people be able to subscribe to MR Video Plus? I am assuming that it will be in the Spring, when it comes out.

Thank you,
Alexander

I would like to know what are the best street lights to get and the wiring I would need to hook the lights up to a connector.

Hi Cody
I would like to know what you used on the mr&t and the wisconsin & southern dcc system, and if it is a good dcc system. Thanks for a great show.

i agree with thomas r gerbasi the old school works better

11

Very good show Cody.

Good to see that the MR&T also gets dirty track! To bad you did not have a CMX track cleaner or a John Allen ‘Masonite’ track cleaning car there as well for display.

Hay keep the good stuff coming, I dont work on my RR in the winter, arv. temp. is below 0. sometimes 20 below.

14

Good one, thanks.

15

Thanks for another great installment, Cody. I really look forward these videos. I have a question regarding the Bachmann HO GE 70-tonner. What is the appropriate DCC sound decoder to use for this model?

Hey Cody,
I am building an HO Scale Layout (L-shaped, 20 by 4 with a 4 by 4 extension), and I’m having trouble picking an interesting prototype. I’m looking for something I can use my SP/UP locos on. Help!

Who pays that much for woodland scenics stuff. You should tell them if they cut their prices by 30 to 50 percent. I’ll bet they’ll sell some.

Cody
Great hat! Drew mentioned your hats on the latest preview of Video Plus, pity he didn’t take the display hanger off his after purchase and before filming the rail fan segment.

Keep up the good work.

ON HOW TO BUILD MY RAILROAD.
