O Scale Relay Signal Control
Ever been struggling with a traditional Lionel 153c controller wondering if there is a better way to control your accessories? Now there is!
In this video, I describe a relay based system first described on model railroad forums. It's proven a reliable and cheap alternative to the finicky 153c!
Below are links to the original idea from ModelTrain Forum user Millstonemike and links to the Rectifier and Relay I used in my project. Note while there are likely US/Amazon based alternatives, those would increase the price of the overall project.

    I just found your channel. Very nicely done! You could also use an external source to power your signals, use your insulated rail as the signal to trigger a timer board to change the signals. This would eliminate the dirty wheels issue. Just some food for thought. I just subscribed to your channel and look forward to seeing your layout and future content. Your grandfather did a beautiful job on that custom double track signal bridge. That is something you will treasure for the rest of your life and pass down to your children. Excellent tutorial!

    this is a super random question but how did the whistles here compare to 97 on that NPE night 12/2 through dock? like how loud in comparison which was louder (sorry that it’s a weird question lol)

    • @Trainman5135Productions
      @Trainman5135Productions 11 месяцев назад

      Not at all a random question! It can be tough to determine just from video audio alone. I'd say the clips around the 25:00 mark are pretty close. The rest are a little more subdued, though that wasn't a bad thing! The echo out in Nevada is certainly something to behold, which is different from CT.

      Always good to see a railfan friend! 4449 is owned by the Oregon Rail Heritage Foundation. Both their website and the friends of the 4449's would provide info on public operations. When I was lucky enough to see her run, it was a private event that I just happened to stumble upon. It was not announced to the public. Hopefully there will be public runs in the future; I'd be there in a heartbeat!
