Matthew,
Allan Gartner's Wirng for DCC is invaluable. I read it front to back before wiring my first DCC layout.
Keep your stick on the ice. Dwayne A.
Without knowing the track plan of your layout, it is quite difficult to give you any hint, other than just general remarks.
I understand you will run this layout on DCC. A 4 by 8 layout run on DCC really does not need complicated wiring, just make sure you have sufficient power feeders installed. Watch the polarity, though.
hello.
i've looked through all of the electrical postings and saw lots of trouble shooting problems and i've even picked up a book on model rail roading wiring but didn't learn much...
someone must have some sample power grid setups that they have come up with?
looking to run an MRC Prodigy 2 on a 4'x8' N Scale setup
planning on using barrier wiring blocks distributed around the bottom of the board
the top hard surface on the bench is 3/4" plywood then 2" of dow blue styrofoam
pretty straightforward setup, just trying to absorb some wiring ideas before i make any dumb mistakes
