Rodolfo, <br />You don't have to do much to your wiring unless it was poor in the first place. There are many opinions on feeders to the track, but one rule is feeders for every three feet of track. <br /> <br />But whoever told you, you just need to switch all your blocks to "on" is correct. If you have lots of blocks, you will love the liberation from them. <br /> <br />I use Digitrax because it is just about the only show in town in Vancouver, bc. It is nice to get a system that most people have in your area so that WHEN you have trouble, you will have many shoulders to cry on. <br /> <br />Also in Yahoo! Groups there is an excellent Digitrax forum that will help you with any problem <br /> <br />Most systems are quite good now. So I wouldn't worry about brands as much as in the past. Religious testimonials as to brand loyalty aside, they will all (except the real real cheapies) do what you want. <br /> <br />My son works at a local hobby shop here in Vancouver. They just reduced the Atlas system prices in fear that the new low end Digitrax about to come out will eclipse it. If you can get such a deal locally, the Atlas system (Lenz) will give you all you need now, and you can expand into Lenz (an excellent brand) latter.
