DCC series (pt2)

[xfireballl5]

I have a Bachman E-Z command controller. I suppose I will have to change this to operate trains fitted with sound?

Can you recommend a controller. I don't have a massive layout.

[ay76]

@xfireballl5 No you shouldn't have to change it, unless you need to. It'll operate sound fitted loco's. If your going for another DCC controller, it's down to personal pref & choice, budget etc.

terrible shunting move.. no brake on the waggon, barging right into it... im gona have to report you to the yard master!!

[ay76]

@nickfrank1 It was the yard master doing the shunting!!....The main driver had nipped for a tea break, LOL!!

I had no idea Model Trains had moved on so far. I remember my layout in the loft, electronic points had been introduced and my Dad ripped up my manual points one at a time to replace them. I had a lot of fun diverting the trains from the rail work. This is something else!

[ay76]

It's going to intresting to see how far DCC control is going to develop on model railways. Sure opens up a lot more to operating. Cheers.

[CutnSpray]

Do you have to trigger the acceleration/ deceleration noises from the control or are they automatic when you speed up/slow down?

[ay76]

There automatic.Cheers.

[sim2lew]

These videos are really tempting me to get DCC and fit sound and light throughout. I take it the sound is probably a little better quality in reality rather than through my cheap desktop speakers?

[ay76]

Yes, if you can see if your local modal shop can give you a demo of one of the sound loco's. I think you'll like DCC. I often wonder what it'll be like in another 10 or so years time?? :-) Cheers.

[marsrow]

some awesome trains

[ay76]

Thank you :-)

[PULSE88]

Is the sound coming from the train?

[ay76]

Yes that's correct.Cheers.

[PULSE88]

Cool so the train must have a speaker in ti or something yeah?

[peggey707]

awsome dcc sound, amazing

[ay76]

:-) cheers.

[gentarion]

sweeeet, again, its snowing here now, soon 1 meter!!!!!!!

[ay76]

Wow nice one,Can you do a video of that for us please.Haven't seen decent snow in years!! Cheers.

[mackiemachine3]

funny, here we're have a 40'C (113'F) heat wave! awesome sound! it sound amazingly real! (if u were wondering a live in australia so it's summer and not a freak winter)

[ay76]

Wow Australia, cool. Here it's snowing heavily & temps dropping down to minus 6 deg C. To hear / see this for real is even better than you see/hear it on here. All I need now is some exhaust clag!! Cheers.

[truckduck065]

Sure i've seen this video somewhere before... onboard a 222 I think...... ummmm Nice video! 5*

[ay76]

Heh heh heh,with a very nice cuppa in 1st class,:-) cheers

[truckduck065]

oh yes I forgot it was first class as it was so quiet with everybody else virtually a sleep.

Went on First again from Derby to Long Eaton - just under £4 single and I got a cuppa too!

Cheers

[ay76]

Nice.Wonder if it was PG tips??? Cheers

[truckduck065]

can't remember but it was nice though. cheers

[Forevagrey]

hit the train a bit hard there

[ay76]

Aye the driver is still learning....now where did he put the L plates??? Cheers

[Forevagrey]

dont you have a shunting function as on the 20 i got with sound you can and it just turns momentum down

[ay76]

Just checked the info sheet & it's function F7.Funnily enough,I've just been trying that function out about 20 mins ago. Will include that function in another video on this series, for you.Regards.

[ay76]

Having to do this reply again as for some reason YT have lost the original.Funnily enough I've just been trying out function 20 before you posted this reply. I'll do a video showing function 20 in this series for you.Regards,Cheers
