Hello,

When connecting several re-railer/connector tracks to the same loop, do I need to worry about polarity? What would happen if the connections were crossed?

George

Thanks for the quick response. I suspected it may have been coal but I wanted to make sure. Since you mentioned turning radii, I thought that I had read that a 2-10-2 couldn't turn on anything less than a 22" radius. Could you please confirm that for me?

I would thankful for any other information that you think is important for a novice.  I know that could be a tremendous volume of information, but if you could help to avoid some of the more common mistakes I would appreciate it.

I purchased an EZ Command DCC controller, the Spectrum 2-10-2 and a Spectrum 4-4-0. I also have some DC engines and a small DC power pack.

Thanks again.

Hi,

I am very new to this hobby so please forgive my ignorance. I just purchased a Spectrum 2-10-2 locomotive online and there was a small plastic bag with some black powder packed with the train. What is it and what is it for?

Thanks

George
