Is this signal using IR detectors to activate it?

[hoorider13]

@BNSFCSX1 It is a Walthers Cornerstone controller that uses photocells. I'm planning on replacing it with a LogicRail system because the Walthers has problems with false activations and was not designed for heavy usage as on our club layout.

[Buddycash96]

what state and town was this recoded in?

[hoorider13]

@Buddycash96 The GGMRC is located in San Francisco, CA.

[MrBNSF24]

Were did you get those C44ACCTE's? I cant find those anywhere.But the video is great.

[hoorider13]

@MrBNSF24 Thanks!  The C44ACCTEs are from Kato. They've been out of production for 2 years and are very hard to find. You might find some on eBay or at train swap meets.

My grain trains are 20 - 25 cars in length, not counting units & cabooose

[marodude752002]

Nice. I run U.P. grain trains, along with Burlington Northern & C.P.Rail on our club layout here in Pocatello ,Idaho. 5++++++++++ stars

[hoorider13]

@marodude752002 Nice! How long are your grain train sets?

[hoorider13]

Ya, we're in the basement of a children's museum but I guess our club is the big draw!

[upac4400cw]

[hoorider13]

Hmmmm, which one were you looking at? =)

[upac4400cw]

all of them but i cant buy them all at once. really lookin at the ex sp engine first

[hoorider13]

Hehe, a little surprise about ex-SP #9651 is it is actually a dummy unit! I just took a dummy blue box model and patched it with Microscale decals!

[upac4400cw]

@hoorider13 thats cool, what ya want for it? i got a dummy "ccrcl" unit i dont want

[hoorider13]

Unfortunately, I'm not selling anything at the moment. I need to do an inventory of what I have before I start putting price tags on stuff.

[upac4400cw]

let me know when ya wanna sell somethin UP or patched into UP

[hoorider13]

Actually, if you want some stuff patched I can do that for you. I've done BNSF and UP patch jobs with Microscale decals.

[upac4400cw]

i can do it myself, ive done plenty but i dont have engines

[JakBal3112]

[hoorider13]
