I am trying to redo my old Rapid-Q application I created to control Model Railroad trains and tracks with. It will do all the track switching and even run the trains in Auto mode. But I can't transfer the code to RB as the old QuickBasic commands are a NO go in RB.

I looks like you are in luck. I did some searching on Google, and it looks like Aaron Ballman has already conquered this in RB with the help of a third-party dll file. You can find the dll and Aaron's sample RB project here:
