Automating Model Railway Layouts with Arduino Microcontrollers

Fri, 2019-02-01 22:55 — Kushagra Keshari

I developed a recent interest in model railroading since a year ago. Bought some tracks and trains and got them running. Since I didn't have much space, I went for N scale Kato Unitrack to make my temporary layouts. Since I also had a casual interest in microcontrollers, especially the Arduino microcontrollers(since they were low-cost and open-source), I went ahead to automate a model railroad layout.

Since researching the layout further I decided that I wanted to operate the Central Railroad Company of New Jersey (CNJ).

Nce Question

Fri, 2019-02-01 17:22 — Mustang 61

Hi everyone,

     I recently picked up a NCE power cab DCC starter system, and like it very much. I'm starting to program up some engines, the system reference manual is good, but is there an any other programming guides out there? I'm going to ask the my operating group if anyone uses  the NCE system, have not come across one yet. I'm not the most tech savvy person I know!!

Best, Scott

Usually Alco switchers are found in museums or tourist lines.  Here's an industrial setting where the burbling whine of an S2 is still heard
