All, Checking my thinking on wiring single crossovers with Peco Electrofrogs: My locomotives all have keep alive circuits, so initially I'm not planning on powering my frogs (I will drop frog feeders

good afternoon, great you take time to answer all of these questions....thank you. I have a Kato electric turntable and want to use the MRC reversing unit. can you tell me how to do this...and the eas

Hi James, To wire a 3-way turnout, see my website at: http://www.wiringfordcc.com/switches_peco.htm#a8 Allan Gartner Wiring for DCC

Hi Richard, If you have a crossover that the rails are opposite polarity, you need to treat it as a reversing section. See my website at: http://www.wiringfordcc.com/track_2.htm#c4 It has cases for cr

The Peco Unifrog is now available as a code 83 HO #6 turnout! I received four of them yesterday. The part numbers are: RH #6: SL-U8361 LH #6: SL-U8362 The points and closure rails are one continuous p

Hi All: Long story short; I am totally new to model railroading and DCC. Although Allen recommends starting off simply, I’m a big learn by doing person and have created a layout that requires a little

It appears there is no power to my programming track, right from the Command station. I also get an error with JMRI, 310 No Locomotive Detected, on programming and main tracks. JMRI says this error is

Questions: There is a roster for locomotives in Panel Pro and in Decoder Pro. Do they talk to each other? I'm planning on using Panel Pro to run trains, turnouts etc., do I need to put locomotives in

The lowest deck(s) on my new layout are 3 areas of staging tracks,...one area to the left wall, one area to the right wall, one down the center (under the peninsula). These 3 sections are fed by a Pec

I have psx-ar circuit breakers on my reversing loops. I have them connected to the tortoise machines to auto throw the turnouts entering the loops- very convenient for continuous running. But on some

I currently have a couple of locomotives with Digitrax DH126D decoders. I am not particularly interested in full sound, but would like to consider at least a bell or horn/whistle. I notice the Digitra

I have an NCE PowerCab. Originally I wired a totally separate (physically and electrically via DPDT switch) programming track. Due to revision to track layout and space limitations, that track segment

I have a couple spots on my layout where I'd like to use remote uncouplers and didn't see what I was looking for in past posts here. I've seen references about activating these through a DCC throttle

I recently purchased a Walthers/P2K SW8 locomotive (HO scale) with a factory installed QSI ver6 SW8 decoder. My DCC system is an NCE Power Cab connected with Decoder Pro to a programming track. All we

Locos all runaways when I programme them with Lenz LV 100 - fail to respond to speed controls. Either express or nothing. Tried to fix with dynamis - straight to express - any help - are all the decod

Hi, Are questions related to wiring about things other than track power (but still for DCC) appropriate for this group. I'm talking about topics like decoder wiring, switch machine wiring, layout ligh
