Hello and thank you for stopping by and learning more about the services I can provide.    Rule 281 is the rule defining what signal aspect and the permissible actions are for a clear block signal.   Using Rule281 Services will give you a clear block to obtaining the paint/decal, 3D printing, DCC, Arduino, or JMRI services you need and/or want.  

I have over 40 years experience in paint and decal application, references are available upon request.   

DCC, JMRI, and Signaling projects are a specialty, my own layout is fully signaled and fully integrated with JMRI.  I have performed hundreds of DCC installations, incandescent to LED lamp conversions, and sound installations.    

Brass steam locomotives are my favorite.  Most of these projects are challenges due to DCC electrical issues, poorly designed/installed/performing motors and/or gearing.   The fact is a lot of brass from the 1960/70/80’s was designed to be looked at or run on DC layouts.  DCC and advanced sound decoders offers a new level of realism for brass steam but also a new level of technical challenges to overcome.

What sets Rule281 Services apart from others are the transparency and information you will be provided as we define, scope out, and execute a project.   Weekly project email updates will be provided.   No surprises are something that I expect from others, I will offer you the same courtesy.
