  8. so not sure if you guys now but i want to get into the model train/model railroading world even as a blind person, but i just have one thing to say. okay, this is very strange. Why would a multi million dollar model train manufacturer like MTH electric trains use hex headers and raw audio blocks for their .mth files? And why are they still freely available? That boggles me, very much so. Even in their modern #Protosound3 locomotives they have this, hex headers and raw audio blocks, even the hex headers specify where it loops! I thought they'd use encription by now! #ModelTrains #ModelRailroading #MTHElectricTrains

  9. NEXT WEEKEND! Come join us September 20th and 21st as part of the Union Station Train Festival in Los Angeles Union Station! We will be on display from 10 AM to 6 PM! #ModelTrains #NScale #NTrak #ModelRailroading

  14. How decoders are addressed confuses many. Multifunction decoders have 2 modes: Primary & Extended. Accessory decoders have 9 or 11 bit addresses. Not confusing at all.😀

  18. Wangrow Electronics SystemOne #NMRADCC for #modelrailroads was an early entry. While Wangow has been gone for 20 yrs, the SystemOne is still very capable. #NCE was a contractor for both components and software.

    NCE would later go it alone, and Wangrow would struggle to create their own software before ceasing business operations.

  20. A number of command control systems have appeared for #modelrailroads over the years.

    None were overly successful as incompatibility was the rule. The #NMRA would eventually create a standardized system called "Digital Command Control" in 1993.

  23. The Electrofrog from PECO causes confusion in DCC #modelrailroading
    due to its power routing.

    But, those obstacles can be easily overcome.

  24. The description of the feed mentions it's listening for the hashtags #modelrailroad, #modelrailway, #modelrr, #modeltrain, #modeltrains and #modelrailroading. There's another feed, which I think looks for things like "model railroad" (without the hashtag).

  25. Equal time for NCE's Cab Bus:

    NCE developed their Cab Bus, which is a serial, polled network.

    The Cab Bus connects Cabs (throttles) to the command station, while the Control Bus is for booster connections.

    Cables are easily made, but the Power Cab has a specific cable, designed to carry power.

    Read more about the Cab Bus and throttle networks at the DCCWiki.

    Today they are obsolete, replaced by modern connectors with more contact points.
