Tom:

I used C track screws on my M track with no problems.

Hi Ross - thanks for the link to your decoder/control modules, this is really good stuff.
It has been interesting to compare the schematics with other proprietory brands.

I have built and continue to run both Viessmann and Conrad kit-set modules - both of which are very cheap when you have direct access to them in Europe. Freight costs are a crippling factor, so it is good to have an "Antipodean" supply source.

Hi Tom, all,

I went thru this episode last year ended up using underlay from Trackrite [in Albury -J & K Hobbies 02 6041 4098] it is almost the same stuff plumbers wrap round pipes for insulation except it has been profiled for 2 rail runners. various profiles & guages available, I had to modify the underlay to fit under M profile but very good sound deadner, Screw's are another problem I ended up using 2 g x 5/8 & 2g x 3/4 but these are very hard to find , I tried numerous bulk supplier's untill I found & brought the last lot on shelves in Melbourne, a mate near by has some left over from his layout but Im not sure if he would want to sell at the moment as he has mentioned more expansion in the near future. Noel @ Nathans trains in Brissy may know of a supplier,

Regards Tom In Oz [ Blue mtns to be exact.]
