Hi lads, Jess blowen away by the responses, thanks Not much of an update as been rescreaching into DCC, Can I ask what type of solder do you guys use for the dropper cables ie size , make ? Any link to purchase Another question, I'm using hornby track point but I see you can purchase clips that fit between the tracks to allow power to pass when the are changed over when using DCC, have any of you use these ? Are is it better to solder cable between the tracks? Thanks a million.

Wow, looks great, can I ask which sound chip do you have in the A class?
-
Super, messaged you @Dempsey

Thanks lads, all sound advise @Tullygrainey I'm going to use the connections as I have in the photo above, ive used them before in cars and are a sound joint , just not really into soldering. Just as a side project i stripped back a transit and put eircom transfers on it, to be added to the layout.

Hi all, I'm going to start the DCC work but need some advise, I have purchased a digitrak zephyr DCS 52 controller and also 5a cable both red and black and cable connectors for bus wire but a few questions please, I have two oval tracks so do I need two runs of bus wire (both red and black) because of these or will one run of black and red do? Should I run the bus wire as a straight line end to end or should it be in a oval shape? Also do I need dropper wires for each section of track? Again many thanks!

Ya, I'm the same.

Hi all, Thanks again for the pointers, I was at the layout again today, and I think I'm just about there , I'm going with the main focus as a Continer, goods yard with minor residential buildings, I'm thinking of a bus stop outside the carlow station as well. I've cut down on alot of slidings as you guys suggested, after this stage I'll move to sitting the cable for the DCC. Again any suggestions are must welcome, thanks.

I'm going to be running DCC , not sure at this stage what sencery, i always liked irish railway containers so some of that . Anyway here are some pictures of the improve (I hope layout) Thanks again lads

Hi all, This is my first layout, so please be kind any pointers would be great at this stage as its small in size 6x4 but trying to pack as much track on it , after putting the base and 6 x 4 9mm plywood, I put down a German made grey ballast pattern down first which was very easy to use. I'm thinking of plenty of containers and freight from the 70s up. What do you think of the way the track is set up before I pin it to the board? Thanks

Hi all, Looking for help , I'm currently setting up a 6x4 layout with 3 oval tracks connected together with left and right hand points. I have only one power point connected to the outer track and the dcc zephyr , I'm wondering should the two inner tracks have looped power from the outer track ? Because when I change over points to the inner tracks the power dies off and stops the loco.
