If anyone is in the DC area this weekend our club, the Japan Rail Modelers of Washington DC, will have a small Ttrak setup at the Smithsonian Museum of American Art this weekend for the Cherry Blossom

Greetings, We'll be setting up a T-Trak Exhibit at the *Johnson City Big Train Show, May 30-31, 2025.* In case you looked at your calendar, yes, this is Friday and Saturday.? We set up on Thursday

I'm surprised as well... Apart from answering the original query, I don't know why we'd want to 're-invent the wheel' when a standard already exists. I understand some groups/clubs wanting an

I have been surprised by the level of interest in this.? I have set up in shows from Florida to Massachusetts and as far west as St Louis.? I have never heard this discussed as an issue.? Modules

I can understand the possibility of plugging an AC bus into a DC bus because the configuration is the same. However the Brown/black plug and white/black plug difference should be easy to see.

Thanks Guys, We currently provide a DC bus as many of our members have LEDs on their modules and some Arduinos. I'm the only one in the group needing AC, at least today, which is not a problem.

Oklahoma N-Rail uses an AC bus only. If we need DC, we put a converter under the module. That means we don't need to run two buses and we avoid confusion. It's a little more work adding powered

Ed and everyone, one thing that's getting very little mention: You can always stack more than two PowerPoles. Bruce shared a few photos earlier of their 2x2 track power combination. If you stack AC

Thanks John, Please be assured that Tennessee T-Trak complies with the T-Trak Wiring Standards, including the DC and AC accessory bus configuration. However, I expressed a concern that the AC and

Hi Folks: Like Martin Myers, I was a member of the committee that developed the use of Powerpoles and created the current standards. * A Recommended Practice (RP) in 2005/2006. * This

I assembled a one hood up and one hood sideways and unfortunately the locking pin cannot be used with this configuration. Bummer!! Ed Minnich 615.416.2892 Sent: Sunday, March 2, 2025 5:10

I agree that one hood up and one hood down does not lock-slide together - neither side-by-side nor vertically.? The one hood up and one hood vertical will slide-lock on 2 configurations.? I am too

Steve, You are correct. I experimented with my PP Connector supply and discovered you cannot make a one hood up and one hood down configuration. But, you can make a one hood up and one hood

But it is still physically possible to plug an AC cable into a DC receptacle and vice versa, if both are side-by-side connectors with hoods in the same orientation - you just turn the plug combination

Thanks, Philip, for your observation, In playing around with some PP connectors in my supply box, I noticed you can have one connector “hood down or hood up” and the other connector

The variance of colors does raise some concern especially as there could be nasty consequences in hooking up the wrong pairs. . Since there are at least 10 different colors with Anderson Powerpole

Hi John, Correct, my mistake. However, both the white and brown bus PP connectors are configured the same way so it is possible to accidentally interconnect the two. At least that's the way it

Ed, Our DCC bus is Red/Black (Vertical hood up, Outside line) Yellow/Black (vertical hood up) Our DC bus is White/Black (Horizontal, Hood Up) and our AC bus is Black/Black horizontal hood down Some
