triplex update
Posted by dinwitty on Monday, June 25, 2012 9:34 PM

having been apart a few months, i've been a stickler to get loco projects together.

Westside Triplex Virginian 2-8-8-4 given a mechanical workover adding pickups and fixes, the engine runs smooth, 3 motors, 3 DCC decoders, 2 sound units and superbright headlights.

 

Sound decoders use the digitrax sound bug, not the sounds I want, thats why the soundbug and the programmer for it. Yep, soundbug/speakers in the engine and tender.

 

all the crazy wires hanging out its not done on that end, I figgered there's be issues yet, some weird open and shorting going on, all that wire stuffing going on funky things happen. It will stay like this as I move on to my NKP Hudson.
