Wickness Models has a new range of dcc sound decoders, the list of projects is starting to expand, covering decoders for n, OO and O gauge, the main aim was to provide throttle responsive sound projects on Loksound decoders with specific ambient sounds as a prescription option, you can read about so...

The idea is to switch between any of the four circuits without the need to remove and replace connections on the controller...

I agree entirely that the Select is not a reference for DCC performance, however I have a client who runs his layout on a Select and has recently purchased a number of factory fitted Bachmann models. He has not had problems in the past in using the Select with Bachmann chips and is now bemused by th...

Has anyone come across problems in relation to the use of newer factory fitted Bachmann dcc models with a Hornby Select controller. Specifically, the ability to change address, but no subsequent drive function
