    Hi, everyone.

    I'm in KC, having lived in Wichita and Winfield, KS, and Ponca City, OK.

    I'm working on a freelance HO layout, and I collect some railroadiana. My favorite railroads are the Santa Fe, Missouri Pacific, Rio Grande, and - of course - the Frisco.

    I've already found the forum to be useful - I am currently faced with a couple of different DCC installation issues, and I look forward to learning much more from the group.

    Thanks for having this online community to share information!

    - Bruce

    Welcome to the forums.

    BTW, what DCC system do you use?

    Bruce, welcome to the group. It's good to have another Frisco modeler in the KC group: myself, mark, rick mcclellan, to name a few. Hope to meet you sometime soon.

    Hello!

    Thanks for the welcome. I can tell I'm going to like it here.

    I have a Digitrax Zephyr system. I use a PR3 with JMRI computer software to connect my Mac for programming decoders (makes things MUCH easier) - though I'm still doing a lot of trial-and-error with getting lighting effects to do what I want.

    Though most of my models are Santa Fe, I have picked up a few Frisco pieces here and there, though no locomotives as of yet.

    At present, my layout is a generic location, so I can swap out different roads at will. I know a lot of modelers don't like that, but with my small setup at the moment, it's okay. I'll work for more accuracy on future projects.

    - Bruce

    Welcome aboard, Bruce; I went ahead and sent you an invitation to join the Kansas City Terminal Social Group. And, for what it's worth, others are welcome to join!

    Best Regards,
