Hi I have used NCE PowerCab since I restarted in N scale in late 2021. I run up to 6 trains simultaneously (you do have to pay attention...!). It works really well, and once you know the buttons, you can work it without looking (for most functions).
I worked in electronics since 1974. The reliability of modern electronic parts (there are exceptions with some Chinese sources) is really good. I still have amplifiers I built in 1972 that work perfectly (they did get new capacitors, as these are "wear parts"). You do not have to worry about...
Hi I have the NCE PowerCab controller. I idle up to 12 or 13 engines in the yard and industrial sidings, while I run 4 trains on the main loops and one or two trains on the outer "high speed" passenger loops. Limit is 6 in the NCE unit. When all this is going on, I am pulling around 900mA...

I got the response from YouTube when I tried a couple months ago, and gave it up immediately. It is Google, which is a disaster (my 900+ seniors in my university classes proved this point...).🤪
Thanks! One issue with YouTube- I tried to join up, but they want a 5 minute personal video or my driver's license to make an account- NOT going to happen...
I am changing an older Kato diesel to sound. The engine started with the two clip-in lighting PCBs. I machined out the frame as shown in the pictures using my Dremel bit in my drill press approach. I 3D-printed a small case for the 9x16mm OWS speaker (DigiKey). My case designs are on...
Hi I will need your last name for mailing. I will take the box to the PO tomorrow morning and let you know. It weighs about 12 pounds or so. I will mail by lowest cost for you.
