Layoutlevel
 

Hello just to introduce myself, I am newly retired and now have the time and space to build my model rail layout in HO/OO scale. I am using a mix of old and new stock mostly powered by DCC.

Hi level

Thats great.
I am doing the same thing myself - all over again. Would like to share ideas. This is the third attempt in 2 years. Good luck.

Welcome to the Forum layoutlevel. Look forward to news of your layout and your experiences with DCC.

Best wishes,

John H-T.

good luck with that! all i will suggest is to NOT use wireless control it is very annoying and you will soon hate it, at the model club we have a dcc layout and we hated wireless so much we bought a new DCC control unit :P . It just loses connection all the time and you have to keep it pointing at the hub thing. It only works if you rig up your whole room for it.
