Ok I will look and get that sent in! Thanks

I am a newbie..and saw this post.  Where do we get the card to send in to register our trains?

Thank you for your reply..that sounds like a good idea..  I am waiting on my table to be built so im still gathering ideas and pieces for the puzzle and then hopefully little by little will be able to make some sort of town with my train models! This will be fun

WOW what a detailed description..thank you so much...this will help me with my layout I will try and make in the upcoming months.  This should help in buying more locomotives and cars..I cant wait to start on this project ! I am really excited about this hobby..Thanks again..you have been a big help!

OK thanks I will look into the you tube videos.Thanks

I have just set up the track like on the box of the Track pack and been practicing using the DCC command pad...so far its pretty cool...just waiting on a table..I have a few ideas in mind...but not sure how I want to make it..I want to to be able to be transfered and broken down like they do at the train shows..so I hope my uncle can figure that out haha...the L shape will look really good..have you been looking in magazines to see what layout you want to do?  I cant wait to start building my landscape.  Where are you  located?  I will have to look up the era to put my setting in

another simple thing..I am not sure how to turn the trians headlight on using the DCC pad..Im sorry im tottally brand new to all this..so its the blind leading the blind I appreciate your patience.

my set came with http://www.bachmanntrains.com/home-usa/products.php?act=viewProd&productId=194  and the green wire is already attatched to the bottom of the turnout.

OK great thanks! I think I sort of get the idea now..Will I have to control them manually or how will I label them and then switch them by using the command pad? Do you have any suggestions on thigs you did wrong when you first started? or things you wish you would of changed?  Thanks for your help

How do you like it so far   I have my track on a 4x8 board..my uncle is a woodshop person..so he is going to constuct me a nice display to put my train on..then onto the next project with the mountains and buildings etc..what ERA would you put this train set in?

  I was at the Columbus Train show this past weekend..and decided I finally wanted to start this hobby.. I got a DCC set.
1. What is the difference between diesel DCC and digitial DCC?
2. Any suggestions to a new person to this hobby...I literally do not know much about this (hence why im getting educated on this forum)
3. How do you get the switches hooked up? can it be controlled by the DCC control system?

Thanks alot for your help!
