Re: Tomalco - It is offical
Very likely only flex track in current codes.
Switches would require $$ in tooling.
This may be one of those things that scale S guys will just have to be glad that the line of flex has been

Re: Today¡¯s S Scale project
Here is an update in the build.
I had spent a month and a half of model powers trying to build up a better tribe train for this model. Due to the models weight but more so the amount of space I had

Re: Diode Constant Lighting
Seems pretty easy to add a diode to the circuit to protect the LED.

Re: Diode Constant Lighting
This is where some of the confusion comes in.? The way Digitrax creates the waveform (and it is not the only possible way) is to hold one "Rail A" at common and apply +14 VDC (approx) to "Rail B."?

Re: Back To Modeling, Sorta...
I wish the Pine Canyon kits were still available, they were very nice.? I built a small number of them, including the Rigsby Terminal kit which I had to modify to fit.? Cutting the walls was a bit

Re: Diode Constant Lighting
So this is where, i think, there is confusion. My understanding...and I
could be totally wrong, is that DCC puts a half wave on each rail so that
one rail, for the sake of argument, is a 6v square

Re: Back To Modeling, Sorta...
Yes, the material used in the Pine Canyon Modules does have a pronounced
Oder when cutting or sanding, but they make great models. I have to say, I
have several DSL Models and they are also very nice,

Re: Back To Modeling, Sorta...
Actually... I've cut many Pine Canyon kit walls using my chop/miter saw and a fine tooth blade (60 TPI, I believe). When I used this blade to cut MDF building cabinets, it produced a wood powder as

Re: Diode Constant Lighting
It is AC. And the rails act as a transmitting antenna. If you tried to turn on your AM radio while your DCC equipment is on, the noise from the DCC overrides the strongest AM station!

Re: Diode Constant Lighting
AC isn't being mimicked.? It IS AC.? It just happens to be a square wave.? There is a lot of confusion about this due to some other naming conventions.? Most notably "Bi-polar DC" which is a term

Re: Diode Constant Lighting
I noticed that an LED wired directly across DCC rails will light no matter which lead goes to which rail.? Is this because of the split phase version of DC which sort of mimics AC?? So the diode is
