Hi, I have ( will have when completed this spring) a circuit of about 350 ft. I am using a 6 amp power supply giving 18 volts. I have decided to use a Loco self control-ish system where u retrofit an electronic controller on each loco, giving pushbutton inertia acceleration deacceleration, emergency rapid deacceleration, and with the use of a magnet over a sensor controled station stops( a magnet on a signal gantry), this will allow for constant illimination of onboard lighting, sounds etc. I wondered if anyone else was using alternative control systems to the usual type?
