DCC Wiring of turnouts
Posted by Gary 740 on Sunday, December 25, 2005 11:44 AM
Can anyone tell me which connector I should use to connect the wires from the turnout so I can complete the wiring to the DCC powerbox?`
The Atlas turnouts have a limited length of wire, so any experienced suggestions would help.

Thanks,

Gary

If you're talking about the solenoid to change the position of the turnouts, you can't use DCC for that -- you need an old DC power pack to control the turnouts.
