Give me a call later in the day then. We have some company on Wednesday night, but we can probably squeeze another person in. I don't have time right now to do the DCC thing, so if you can lend me one after the show, that's fine. On the other hand, (...) (21 years ago, 7-Jul-03, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

I'll be at the Laidlaw branch at the outskirts of town. It may be a big upgrade so I might be there all day and have no time for lunch (that's how it usually works, anyway) but after I'm done, I'll be either driving to Port Elgin or crashing in a (...)

Hey, stop on by and we can go out to lunch. I'm at 313 2nd Avenue East. That's towards Harrison park on the main street, and it's on your left as you go south. Give me a call (519) 376-6885 and we can arrange things. I can probably buy a DCC (...) (21 years ago, 7-Jul-03, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

(URL) do the RCX + booster RCX's, we need one RCX with the IR port exposed to a wide an angle as possible to pick up the IR remote signals. THe other RCX's can be completely embedded into the layout--they need a track wire coming from the primary (...) (21 years ago, 7-Jul-03, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

Hey Ralph, you're in luck (I think)--I'll be in Owen Sound tomorrow for business. If you have an RCX (really? You do?) I'll bring up 16 curve pieces plus motor. I'll need the motor back for July 18th for the train show, though. Do you have the track (...) (21 years ago, 7-Jul-03, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

(...) I'm all set for DCC I've downloaded the boosters and such from Mark's page and have tested 'em, but I only have 1 AC capable RCX. I think we'll need at least 3 for the layout--1 for each loop. We'll also need the 5 cm gap pieces to separate (...) (21 years ago, 7-Jul-03, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
