Tarabuses Posted January 13, 2014 Posted January 13, 2014 Has anyone used this new product from DCC Concepts? It appears to improve haulage capacity on gradients. The only problem seems to be that the steel plates have to be fixed under the track. Easy for a new layout but a bit more work when everything is in place. Quote
0 BosKonay Posted January 13, 2014 Posted January 13, 2014 Interesting alternative to adding weight to the loco! Quote
0 Broithe Posted January 13, 2014 Posted January 13, 2014 Review of it in a recent Model Rail or Hornby magazine (somebody lent me both and I can't remember which it was). Seemed to be quite favourable... Like an updated version of magnadhesion. Quote
0 BosKonay Posted January 13, 2014 Posted January 13, 2014 The videos look impressive, but ripping up vast sections of laid mainline isnt an option for most people Quote
0 Tarabuses Posted January 13, 2014 Author Posted January 13, 2014 I have only recently finished relaying much of the track on my layout. However, there is one gradient that is not easily accessed that I left alone. I might see if I can try out PowerBase there - if I can manage to reach it. Quote
