Re: Hornby Pendolo digital
Thanks Theo
Kinda what I figured.
Guess we would have to hard wire - the 7 pin stock is not a recognized DCC configuration.

Re: Wiring For DCC Update Announcement
A lot less if you build your own!
But much easier to buy one!
I hand lay most of my switches with Fast Track jigs.

Re: Wiring For DCC Update Announcement
This link is for a #6 crossing – not a double slip switch.
I would expect it to be cheaper.

Re: Wiring For DCC Update Announcement
The Peco Double Slip Unifrog is excellent. It is, indeed, "easy to use and install" (and wire).
I recently purchases four of them as part of my passenger station track complex.
