WOOHOO!!!!
Thanks for your enthusiasm, biL!

It was great to run the train... and without any problems! No shorts in the trackwork, all the frogs were wired with the proper polarity, the electromagnet worked perfectly, ain't it grand when a plan falls into place!
I'm really in a groove right now... you know how it typically is, always a hundred uncertain things lurking in the background. Not sure how to do that, what is the best way to do this, and alot of time gets spent thinking about how to accomplish the tasks. Right now, I have the wiring all figured out, so I should be able to "just get'er done." Of course, with 170 feet of layout, it is still going to take some time. But that's okay, I'm really enjoying it.
