Ok, enough is enough.. my new PowerCab has been sitting in the box for a month. so last night, after laying some track on my new module.. I hooked 'er up and put my one-and-only DCC loco on the track. Worked the first time.. Amazing how much fun it can be to run a loco back and forth, turning the headlights on and off :tb-biggrin: Yipee, I'm officially DCC :thumbs_up:
Congratulations! That is fun stuff indeed. Been there and totally remember the thrill of first time DCC operation. Brace yourself, I guarantee you're already thinking about the "2nd" loco............and the 3rd, the 4th, the 5th.....
Same here, congrats! How long did it take from pulling The PowerCab out of the box to moving the loco? And did you read the manual first? Now, I would suggest thinking about your 20th, 30th, 40th and 50th....
LOL it took all of about 3 minutes. My big mistake was using the wrong cable.. since they both looked like the same connection type to me let's just say I briefly paged through the manual LOL Now it's time to paint the inside of the shell.. so the thing doesn't look like a radiactive glowing blob when the headlight is on :tb-biggrin:
new DCC user My crystal ball shows many more locomotives in the near future. Way to go DiezMon.:thumbs_up: Is this not one of the greatest things to improve model railroading?
