Introduce Yourself...
Mr. E:
Welcome Trainman605! I am new to Railpro as well and my stuff just arrived two days ago. I am preparing to install into one engine and learn the process. I ordered sugar cube speakers from Litchfield Station. However the post office has my package at the local hub and they keep changing my delivery date. It is frustrating. Now I have to wait until the weekend to start. Best of luck with your G scale install! I think we both made the right choice with Railpro.

I am Emery from the Mansfield, Tx area. My railroad is in the beginning stages and have a RP kit with many modules still in boxes for almost a year now. Progress is happening, but still awhile before the electronics will be installed.
Thank you for allowing me to join this fine group.

Emery, welcome! I'm up the road in Keller. There's a small group of us (Keller, Colleyville, and Haslet) who use RP and have some experience with it. We'd be happy to add Mansfield to the list!

--- Quote from: trainman605 on November 29, 2020, 09:44:44 AM ---I don't think I introduced myself and I'm been around for a month or two. Older guy living in Ft. Worth, Texas. I have been into G scale for 30 years (collecting mainly LGB American engines and rolling stock, I have never built a layout in G Scale, but have a layout in HOn3 modeling the D&RGW NG. I have started with selling some of my LGB on eBay and purchasing newer stuff, that is thinning my G gauge to build a more manageable railroad and use all that I now have, in other words clean out the closet to have a more manageable railroad. I need to say here I'm not a collector, I'm a modeler and I re-build, re-due all my engines and rolling stock to give it that detailed and re-painted to my own railroad, the Ft. Worth & South-Western, an intercity railroad that serves local Ft. Worth and the Stockyards back in the early 40's. I haven't decided if my layout will be outside, or inside, but being a modeler and liking my stuff detailed I'm pretty sure it will be inside. I've spend too much time on re-dues to have them subject to dealing with the elements outside. Like I said, I'm a modeler first and a runner second.
I guess the reason that I'm on this forum is to gain information on RailPro, I will say here I only looked at two systems, AirWire and RailPro, after much input on both I decided to go with RailPro. I have purchased my first RailPro stuff from Don at RCS of New England and it is in the process of being shipped to me as we speak, (11-29-2020). I purchased the complete system and one module for one engine, I'm planning on doing installs on three engines at this time, but will start with one and learn the process then add more installs in time. That's about it for now.

Hello,
My name is Brian - I just started in g scale a few weeks ago and picked up RP battery power from Don Sweet of RCSofNE. I live in Southern California and performed the install myself for the RP unit and battery/charger kit.
Im an experienced N scaler, but because I have two small children, I think g scale garden railroading is a lot more immersive for them with all the sounds and smoke and I’m less stressed about them breaking everything they touch. G scale seems so durable compared to n scale!
Also loving dead rail and radio control. It was quite a bit of research to figure out what I needed to do, but I’m really glad to have found rail pro. I wish DCC were this easy. It’s hard to go back to n scale now.
I’m running a bachmann annie, LGB mogul and bunch of DRGW LGB and bachmann stuff. Hoping to get into 1:20.3, but parts start to get delicate which is not a good combo with toddlers.
Brian
