Just ole' Walker dropping by again. This is a NICE looking consist! I like it, not too short, not too long & looks very realistic. The first 2 BNSF rolling parking lots, who makes those? I like that look & wouldn't mind getting a few of those. Is there an updated version of this layout so I can see how it's progressed? THX!
All of my locomotives are DC which is probably why the ditch lights don't flash on my units? I wasn't aware until only recently that you had to have the DCC models to have flashing lights & other options? I'm new to the hobby after some 30+ years away from it & all this new technology is mind boggling to me, lol.
@originalgrump100 How so? Please tell me how I "need to learn my horn signals"? I did do the proper long-long-short -long. There are some real engineers that like to honk the horn too.
@CoasterFan2105 On some nights when the California Zephyr leaves town, it honks and honks and honks and honks in theses looooooong drawn out blasts. I had no idea until I was actually on it one night as it left and heard it blaring. :) It wouldn't be such a big deal if it didn't come through town in the middle of the night.
Very realistic sound & appearance. Nice layout you have going on there. How do you get the ditch lights to flash so perfectly like that? I have a DASH8 & a DASH9 with ditch lights but, the lights don't flash on either locomotive? What's the trick? Thanks!
I had the same engine (841?) warbonnet.... Absolutely LOVED it. I'm back into N Scale and miss that engine, although I have faith that N scale will get more advanced with the DCC Sound
How did you get the headlights to stay on full without the moving the train, including the ditchlights. I have a QSI decoder in 529 so I should be able to as well.
IDK, maybe I sill had some power in the throttle, like maybe 1. Oh, and Evan and Grant are wrong, it is 126 step, not 128. I was thinking about running this set at la mesa..
real cool! just got my son one for this xmas...seeing your set-up is exciting of this new hobby we are going to begin. thanks for sharing!

@walkerbelle It's just the factory default for the Atlas Dash-8 with DCC & Sound. They're all programed to flash like that. Thanks!
CoasterFan2105 1 year ago
@walkerbelle What kind of decoder do you have in your locomotives, if its NCE i know the trick to make them flash

All you need to do now is patch that Dash 8 to CN.

Ok...this would look good at La Mesa. Should be a lot of QSI sound, lol. I knew it was 126 step, if you mean the speed of course.
