N Scale DCC Decoders in KATO JAPANESE BULLET TRAINS
Posted by JonnyB on Wednesday, December 22, 2021 9:01 PM

So, am trying to install 29-351 and 29-352 decoders into a new KATO 10-1671 Brith Railways Class 800/0 GWR.    Naturally the KATO trainset has no ENGLISH instructions only JAPANESE.  I have other JAPANESE bullet trains and have put in the EM-13 and FL12 decoders in.   I use the NCE DCC system, and am unable to make the 29-352 light decoders work in the lead and last cars.   Anybody have installed these without any problems?   I have spoken to a few N scale model railroaders like me and they all have similar issues claiming that these decoders are very "querky."  I like the look and performance of these Japanese Bullet trains as long as they are not broken!  LOL.   So I have searched the web and have come up with only a few YOUTUBE videos which are barely helpful.    Anybody install these FL-12s in a KATO 10-1671 British GWR?  IF so, can you help me?  Thanks
