Hi All
My name is Sammo
I am new to this forum.
I wish you all a Happy New Year

For info
I am just converting to DCC
The gauge is OO
I have 28 locomotives of the Steam variety
I have 3 locomotives of the Diesel variety
I have 35 carriages
I have 90 wagons
I have 250 foot of track consisting 38 sections, 52 points (turnouts) I have the switching ability to switch in any one of 6 transformers to any of the 38 sections.
Since going to DCC I have used the Switches which were used to switch in transformers 3 and 4 to now switch in the Select or Elite DCC units
I only currently have 7 loco's which are DCC and the rest are DC
I have 3 Wrenn engines which have Escap RG4 motor / gearboxes in.
90 % of my loco's are Bachmann

I have two rail levels
The layout is in my loft which is 17 ft x 9 ft

I will read some of the threads to get an idea of what has been on the agenda before I post any more threads
I am an Electrical technician by trade.
