C CSX5220 Trainz Bum for now Jan 4, 2008 #2 Hi, I've noticed about every 15 to 20miles from one another-it also depends on what type of detector (HBD/DED/HCD) you use and if your planning on going to other territories as well. hope this helps Regards Mike S.:wave:

T Transportfan ...the sign man Jan 4, 2008 #5 I'm using the TPR detector kuid2:30671:23307:1. HBD I think. BTW. It seems to have a problem when I program it for "Track 1" (although Track 2 works fine). The voice will only read the milepost as 0.0. Last edited: Jan 4, 2008
