In this episode: 3 basic ways to wire your track PLUS how to set up and install a DC shuttle controller for a self-running operation on an end-to-end track.
Based on the classic Ealing comedy, The Ladykillers - in Episode 5 of my step-by-step BRAND NEW MODEL RAILWAY BUILD series on building an exhibition layout, I explain the basics of wiring, 3 common ways to wire your track, setting up and installing a DC shuttle controller and how to pin track to your baseboard. Plus, how to set up multiple electrical components using a DC splitter... or the PSU4 module which provides 12 stable 12V DC power supplies when you only have one AC or DC power supply is available.
Plus, I give you an up-to-date tour of The Ladykillers wiring plan so far.
