Making your own colour correct Railroad Signal LED's...

Thu, 2021-07-01 23:20 — JLandT Railroad

So at the end of today's little experiment I've managed to get all three signal colours into seperate 0603 SMD LED's.  I couldn't find anywhere that offered single LED's that were the correct colours for use in HO scale.

JMRI Throttle Looses Control

Tue, 2021-06-29 11:27 — williamgoetz

I am using JMRI with an Arduino Uno to run my layout.(Very early stages) I have a test loco that I am using with a Digitrax DH26 decoder. Everything seemed fine for about a month and all of a sudden the throttle refuses to control the loco. I am able to start the loco, but it runs at constant speed and using the throttle has no effect on speed, stopping or change of direction, I have to actually power-down everything to get the loco to stop. Any help would be appreciated.

Decoder Plug Removal

Mon, 2021-06-28 05:15 — mstsman

I have a Proto GP-20(NS #2008) from Walthers..  I see paired wires are connected to the decoder by, what looks like, white plugs.  I am sending 2 pics with this email .  I need to know how to "unplug" these from the decoder.  Do I lift up on them, do I slide them to edge of decoder, or what?  Any help in this matter would be appreciated.  

Thanks, in advance for your help.

Anyone know what this is? Is it a decoder?

I was going through my DCC decoder stash and I ran across this board. I have no idea what it is or where it came from? 

Anybody know? Looks like it has a small SD card on the back. Wierd.

ESU function mapping Shift Mode

I was going to ask on Tim's thread about how he sets up ESU decoders but it is different enough to be it's own topic.
