can you mix kadee couplers or should you use just one type
Hello Bill,
Thank you for being patient while I asked the expert, here is his reply:
Personally, I like to stay with the Kadee brand and the metal couplers, not plastic. Kadee are just the best. Let me know how you do.

What wood/etc. do you recommend for modeling a bridge for an HO track that would be sturdy enough to hold an engine? I am thinking of making a small/short bridge.
Hello Jill,
Thank you for your patience while I asked the experts, here is the reply:
Sometimes you need to use shims along with a good level as you lay your track. Let me know how it goes.
