  • BLI Paragon 4 SD40: Is it any good?

    Recently, I bought an HO Broadway Limited Imports Paragon 4 with DCC and Sound, in Conrail livery. (Shown below) Some say that it has outdated tooling… but does that matter?

    I purchased the model from Yankee Dabbler. It was shipped in a standard shipping box with barely any cushioning between it’s own box and the shipping box, allowing it to…

  • Roads... how do I do them right?

    Hey, guys.

    Me and my grandfather were discussing roads for his layout. He’s part of the 33%ers, so he doesn’t really want anything too advanced. We were thinking cardboard glued down to the foam and then painted gray with weathering. We also wanted to add a sidewalk to cover up the ugly “waffling” inside the cardboard. (HO and O scale)

  • RE: Wisconsin Central SD40-2

    Hi all. Just signed up. I model in n scale so I joined this group first off. I’ve been trying of late to track down a sample of the SD40-2 Wisconsin Central loco that was released in 2025 by Intermountain. Preorder supposedly expired 5/30. Dealers cannot tell me anything more than that. I’ll keep looking.

  • EMD Widecabs

    Anyone know a good design for an EMD Wide cab? (Mac cab, not Ace cab)

  • Newbie: What should I expect?

    Hey, all:

    I am new to this platform; found out about it from Jimmy DIY’s channel.

    I have been a model railroader for a long time, and I’m part of a MRR club.

    I come from ModelRailroadForums.com. The people there are nice, but I’m thinking of leaving it and coming here, because the website itself has a not-so-good past (or so i’ve heard), and…
