I like change, it's exciting, challenging & interesting. So far I've taken out a few switches, purchased more WS risers & started on a reverse loop that will go through the town of Rahel & back to the big city (I really need to come up w/ a name for it!). I ordered a Digitrax AR1 for auto-reversing, hopefully that will be a snap to install. I made a few other purchases while at the site (http://www.modeltrainstuff.com/) for the AR1, namely a UP switching engine & decoder for it. It's a Kato engine so it should be pretty easy to install the decoder.
I know I said I had said on an earlier post that I was going w/ Santa Fe as the line of choice for my empire, but really, look at that engine! It's beautiful! I highly recommend the site for awesome deals & a tremendous selection of product, easy to navigate, what can I say, I like it. The elevations of Rahel have changed, it's getting some new industries, more switching capabilities & an overall better layout for a passenger station. All is good, I like change! Photos attached.
