DCC Requirements to run on our railroad
Our addressing scheme is simple; we just use the locomotive number itself
as the locomotive address. There is a first-come-first-serve rule where an
engineer with a locomotive that has the same number as another one must use
a different number / address.
We have six, radio controlled throttles.
Any brand of digital decoder will work fine.
All turnouts are Shinohara power-routing.
Option for no DCC
Our modular layout is non-DCC so memebers with standard, analog locomotives
or those DCC locomotives that have automatic detection may run.
