I was pageing thru an electronics catalog ( that makes about as much sense to me as trying to read the Koran in Arabic) and I came across some DC Stepper motors. My questions are; 1. What is a stepper motor? 2. Can they be AC powered as well as DC powered? 3. Are there any practical applications for stepper motors in model railroading? Any enlightenment would be appreciated Joe
