I have gotten good results with the motors from Motors (tramfabriek.nl). Usually the 0816D. Either with their silicon tubing or NWSL universals....
What are the dimensions of this decoder?
David I may have done what you are trying to do. Hard to say for sure. So, what follows may not work for you. My layout is CTC, so I had...
David: Train automation is a fairly broad topic. Can you elaborate on your environment? Unattended display running for a museum or club? Trolley...
The failure rates seem very high. I have about 100 engines on the layout at any given time, and hardly ever have outright failures. I do have to...
I use C/MRI with my NCE system, and would have an interest an interest in some of the cards. I am assuming you are using the rs232/rs485 converter...

I use Radio Shack slide switchers for this, usually with .032 music wire. For deeper holes, usually at a splice plate, I add a piece of brass...
Are you using decoder pro? It should show you the CV's for this.

A friend of mine had a similar problem after a JMRI upgrade. What was there before the upgrade was fine, but he couldn't add a node. I don't know...
I use NEC plug in for the yards; radio for road jobs. All you need to make the change is a base station, which plugs into the bus. Then get a...
