I love the old wooden crossbuck , seeing the light coming through the vertical boards in the shed building.... and backdrop that just draws you in. Yes I agree I have always thought these were some of the best looking boxcar paint schemes.
Ray, (SIDEHACK), not sure you will have the same issue(s), but I installed GRJ's TMCC signal booster on my layout with both Legacy and TMCC base units, and ran into some "issues" that seem to happen to some users of both systems. The fixes below worked well for me.
1. Had to plug my Legacy base directly into the duplex by itself, not through the rather expensive surge protecting power strip I purchased to plug everything else into, including the TMCC base unit.
2. Had to move my TMCC base unit down near the floor, I did have it on a shelf under the table top next to the Legacy base unit, looked great but had communication issues. The symptom was flashing red signal light on the TMCC flashing.... Wrote to Gunrunnerjohn, and he explained that I needed some physical separation between the base units.
Anyway, you may not experience any issues, but if you do, hopefully these hints will help.
Thanks for the info Chris, kind of makes sense I'll keep these in mind as I go through this process.
