How to wire a Marx Girard station?
Posted by cnw1995 on Tuesday, December 28, 2004 7:09 PM
It has a whistle in it and two connectors outside it -If I attach a wire to each, where should I then run the wire? Can I connect it to a 153C or right to the track, or someplace else? Any help would be gratefully appreciated!
