First time with DCC...
Posted by Anonymous on Monday, November 11, 2002 12:37 AM
I just got back from a christmas convention, there happend to be two model railroad clubs there. One HO and the other N, I have a friend who was in the N-Scale club. He let me run his Amtrak for a little while, they had a DCC system(with a radio or something). Anyway, I was really impressed, the amount of control was amazing. Even at slow speeds! There was also this momentum system that would slowly decrease the throttle like the effects of momentum. This was actually bad beacuase I was'nt paying attention through the busy section of the layout(Stupid, I know..)and wound up rear ending someone cause I couldnt stop in time. Anyway I just wanted to say DCC Rules!
