Wiring A Block Section For DCC

Post Body
Enter your post below.
If you are already "blocked", you can run your DCC by selecting all the blocks to be run by the DCC unit in place of Cab 'A' (or whatever you call it). While I am still learning about the specifics of DCC from the club, the only special consideration seems to be a reversing loop. <br /> <br />In term of feeders - if you have block control, you should already have a feeder in every block, especially if both rails are gapped. DCC relies on the rails to get the signal to the decoder in the loco, so more feeders (as frequent as every three to six feet) are recommended. <br /> <br />There are some real DCC experts here though who may be able to offer more help. <br /> <br />Andrew <br />
