In the old daze, our group used the standards set by NASG & DeWitt and Co. However being somewhat isolated down here we never had any one or two day stands with any other clubs! After looking at the skematics of those mega setups at Pittsburgh and elsewhere--I can certainly say thank you Dr. Lenz for making the DCC an open platform! Those old drawings show lots of cabs that could easily result in nasty electrical issues. I don't think anybody has enough string to tow all those trains when electrons don't move in the right directions--just ask the people in New Orleans!

A mystery will take a few minutes to solve, but a stack of them will bring down a display for a long time.

David,

The S-Mod wiring system was designed in the mid 80s well before anything digital or command existed. It is rather flexible to have modules placed in any order. The "restrictions" are rather minimal unlike N Trak with mandatory track placement standards.

Of course the "Two Dons" are free to comment here!

Thank You,
Bill Lane
