@75echo Hi. Sidings are fed through reversers from Hornby current or from an auxiliary transformer rectifier 14 V 10Amp. One loco only can run, the other is hot at rest. Reversers allow choice of loco. Notice that the simmering loco is out of control for driving and to prevent overheating the boiler. Have fun.
A3 are better than A4. Easier to control and appear to be more robust. Tractive effort and speed are about same. Running time is around 25 mùinutes for both.
Very nice setup. I noticed that you are controlling multiple trains using one controller, how did you do this. Thank you.
