8 pin connectors

[RR_Mel]

I buy dual row 40 pin socket strips, you can cut them any length.  Jameco stocks them, I buy mine off eBay.

They end up at 35¢ each.  I use the same connectors in 2 to 10 pins for all kinds of connectors on my layout.

Does anyone know where 8 pin connectors used for decoders can be bought??

 

 

Yes there are a number of places on the Internet. Google 8 pin NMRA connectors. Google should be your best friend.

 Litchfield Station and Tony's Trains are a couple I have used. Traintek is good also.
