When you see a building in disrepair and admire the weathering job.
Have a old HO Athearn GP50 that was purchased at a swap meet. Shell has a lot of added detail and would like to keep it and either remotorize it or buy a new Athearn and swap shells. Is a GP50 base my only choice or are other engines using the same frame that could be used? Going to another train show next weekend and hoping to spot a deal.
Installed it directly in line with the two leads coming from the power supply to the tracks. Cross all three turnouts with no problem. Thanks for the help. Digitrax instructions aren't always clear to me.
Need help in understanding the wiring for a AR1. Have two parallel main line tracks. East bound is made up of two blocks totaling 12 feet in length. West bound is 12' long reversing section with two sets of power leads. Three crossovers connect the parallel tracks, two in on block and one in the other for switching.

Just starting out and cannot program loco number. On program track get message "no decoder" when entering new loco number. Engine and decoder (DH123AT) runs okay on default number 3 . Digitrax had no answer. Any good ideas?
Cleaned wheels and program track, wiggled everything that would move and succeeded in program the loco numbers into the three engines that I have installed decoders. Two of these are F7 Athearns that will run back to back once I get that figured out. Now onward and upward. Thanks for the help.
Can the engine wheel sets cause a short by being flip flopped after cleaning?
Thanks. Appreciate the help.
I will be using a terminal strip between a Digitrax dcs100 and the track wiring and the power supply. What is the maximum (or recommended) gauge wire that will fit the terminals on the dcs100 unit terminal strip?
