| | Does anyone know when QSI is bringing out their new DCC/soundcard for the USA Trains. I just traded for an SD-70 USA and am wondering how long before I can use it. | |

| No idea, and I have 5 of them.... I would guess not sooner than 4-5 months. I'm going to work on the project tomorrow.

| Yes, major extension to the layout, had to hire someone for 2 days to widen the right of way behind a 9 foot wide fountain. Now have a 35' passing siding... had to get this done, since next step is curved SS bridge to complete outer mainline.
Bob, no pictures, still proprietary... looks same footprint as standard USAT board, with small daughter module above.
I hope to make progress this weekend... but have to work Saturday!

| No, it was too much grade to allow trains of the length I wanted. R.J. came over and figured out how to solve my dilemma, the track goes further down the side yard, then loops back by the house. I was granted trackage rights by the wife, whoopee!
My track plan on my layout reflects this, and also some pix in the photographs section of the Aristo site, "Greg's layout"...
