I'm collecting equipment for a 14' 6" x 18' 6" indoor G railroad. I have every thing I <br />need except tethered throttles. I have a power supply made from 2 computer power <br />supplies. I can get filtered DC & variable voltage from 11.5 to 22 volts. My problem is <br />that I need 3 bare bones throttle units (speed control & DPDT center off toggle switch) <br />that will handle 3 to 6 amps. <br />I can't afford power supplies with whistles, bells, momentum etc on my retirees budget. I drool over these commercial units, sound and DCC but I puke at the costs. <br /> <br />Does any one have a list of parts & wiring and /or circuit broard diagrams for bare bones tethered throttles you will share; or can you direct me to a manufacturer of <br />such units? <br /> <br />I have 54 years of railroad modeling under my belt. I've built and designed many things from double coil switch machines to turnouts and buildings. I don't have a lot of <br />knowledge about electronics, just enough to get by. Fishwagon. <br />
