I am trying to use some old A/F and some reproduction operating accessories with DCC. IE: log dump car, stock yard, Gilford station. These would take power from the rail to operate but DCC does not do it. I find it hard to believe that I am the first on to try this. I have an accessory power buss on the tables that does operate the "toys", but I want to very careful about puting that on the rail and someone(the grandkids) runing a loco over it. And with a big isolation gap the loco would not be able to back into the stub to retrieve cars. Any body done this before? Thanks Rob
Welcome to TrainBoard! I can't think of ever hearing about anyone doing this. Sounds like you may be doing some pioneering work! Boxcab E50
Yeah, I was afraid of that. I designed a circuit over the weekend, we'll see if it works out ok Thanks for the responce. Rob
