Decoder Upgrades and a Layout Horror Story from George (S2 E14)

from SoundBytes: Train Talk from Milepost 141 Hosted by SoundTraxx DCC

Tom is hard at work on a 2010 Athearn Genesis GP15-1. He has given it a fresh paint job, cleaned the mechanism, added new wheels, installed a Blunami decoder, upgraded the speakers, added several detail parts, and is now focusing on upgrading the lighting. George doesn’t have a model to show off this week—but he does have a scary story about a night scene on his layout. Decoder Tip of the Month: Is your model acting like it has a mind of its own? It might not be a decoder issue. Before you panic, try resetting your DCC system—it could be the trick to bring things back under control!
