thanks for the info  Michael.  

I too have never had a permanent layout but will be starting on one soon
I think.

I have been using Train Tracker for many years and updates.  I like the
program and data although they have some thing in it that keeps up their
security of the program so does not have some flexibility it could.  
They have added a lot of other manufacturers lately to their data base
but you buy them separately but it does avoid slower entry describing
your own pieces which it does allow.

We have several in the club who do repairs and with my Dad's inventory, I
have a large source of parts available.  Over the summer I hope to get a
better handle on exactly what he has.
