The wire strippers are an excellent tool, as a retired industrial electrician I have used them for many years, they can strip anything from phone wire to 6.0mm cable without having to fiddle with any settings. A great visit Jennie.
Hi Jenny, This visit is a real eye opener. I already use different DCCconcept products but there is so much more to discover...! Thanks for sharing & greetings, Filip
I know this is the future of our hobby and my admiration goes out to the techos who design such equipment, but I feel a little sadness as yet another aspect of life becomes digital and removed from what I regard as day-to-day basics. But then I'm an oldie, and hence about to be confined to my house for God knows how long while we battle this awful virus! Maybe I should use my confinement to get to grips with the 21st century technology. Anyway, I wish all viewers and Jenny and Zoe good health and please keep these videos coming.
Hi Jenny. What a fantastic video. I want to visit DCC Concepts and I know I would feel like a little boy on his first visit to a sweet shop! There is so much to see and I know I would find lots of great ideas.
Anyone else finding it difficult to hear what's being said as the audio sounds like it's down a drain pipe, compounded by the people talking in the background... Otherwise what a fantastic video, really interesting and amazing how they are trying to simplify DCC
Thanks for a great video Jenny (and Zoe for running around). That was a wonderful demonstration of DCC concepts products sufficient to even convert me to the idea of more intelligent electronics on my next layout.
That DCC control thing would be so cool for when i get my layout up and running as i will be having about 20 to 30 points. Then i will have a lot of lights running off it as well. Those buffer stops look so good. It has been so informative. I may end up spending 100s of £s in there!
Hi, Jenny, i have a lot of DCCconcepts equipment, one i recommend is there DCC decoder test board,and the rolling road ,the Zen decoders with high cap are perfect for N-gauge. i would def recommend them.thanks for the guide i have never been to there facility .good to put a face to Richard i have talked to him a few times, take care for now .Mac
So that's how you use those expensive wire cutters that have been hiding in my bottom draw for a few years now! :-) What a great episode. More like this please. Many, many thanks.
Interesting overview. So at 14:15 is that the AEU unit again which he says strips out the CDU and interconnecting wiring to the analogue solenoid points? If so where is the (CDU) power coming from to fire the points ie is it on the AEU board. Also point of note for Ecos 50210 Users, the track V & A can be found on the Operations tab of the screen Menu. So has RJ / DCCC now fully relocated back to the UK (Settle) from Perth?
The two wires control all of the points from the control box whereas with analog you need a separate wire from the control box to each point to control it. So it saves on a lot of wiring by creating a bus that each point can be connected to.
27:50 The magnets will eventually ruin the motor because the magnetic fields are interfering with the motor magnets. How much do DCCconcepts know about electrics?

What an eyeopener! It has inspired me for my future layout plans.Thanks for the valuable information you have presented so enthusiastically.
Getting back into the hobby after 20 years. Now I know why DCC concepts sounded so familiar, it was local to me here in Oz decades ago.

I'm pretty young and understand the sadness, which is why I'm planning on combining DC and digital control (not DCC) into my future layout.
Amazing, so much information. Thanks for sharing Jenny.
I’ve been into visit DCC Concepts and that Ribblehead viaduct is very impressive. Great range of kit too. Thanks for posting.
another brilliant video, i guess this was before you worked for them also interesting that they started here in australia, stay safe roy

I have an Alpha Control for my Burrowa layout and it works extremely well the staff were extremely help full, it could not be easier.

Not perfect audio but still very clear to me.
Thanks heaps for the video, it has cleared up some ideas I have had, especially the magnetic grip for the engines.

Great video, and great company, and based in the UK now. I liked the point operation system that enables usage of conventional lever control.

Very impressive products covering all aspects of Model Rail and definitely worth considering when going DCC!
Hey Jenny, thanks for a very informative review. Happy New Year to you and Zoe, from beautiful East Texas.❤️😷
Love the station and the way the sign on the benches in Settle, says “Settle Down”.
On the other side of the railway, they say "Settle Up" :)
So that's how you use those expensive wire cutters that have been hiding in my bottom draw for a few years now! :-) What a great episode. More like this please. Many, many thanks.
Fred Robinson Carlisle Great video well done will look forward to visiting you very soon once I have made an appointment
Vey interesting and informative video, some great ideas and products. Have just signed up for the DCC Concepts newsletter...
Hi Jennifer, I'm new to your channel and found this video with DCConcpts to be very intriguing. Thank you. - Dean from Minnesota USA
Interesting watch Jenny, I live just down the road from the old shop in Australia. I think there are a lot of people who miss it here.
Hi Chris - Hobbytech is now a full DCCconcepts dealer - they're on Leach Highway in Myaree :)
Very good video Jenny and I do like DCC Concepts product . I have the Rolling Road and it is excellent …………...Cheers Kev
My head is a shed trying to get all this info in! 🤗

This is really interesting gave me a lot of ideas thank you
really informative video.
some really exciting looking new products
Thanks for the great information.👍
Great video, does DCC Concepts ship to the US
Thanks Jenny!
Nice to hear the sparrows chirping!
Looks like that I have to come up north
Awesome 😊 cool 😎 video 👍 I add 10% awesome layout cool 😎 guys
21st century model railways. Certainly come a long way. To much for me to get my head round.
I like the wire strippers!
9:20 Just on two wires? There are only two wires on analogue. What's the big deal with digital?
The two wires control all of the points from the control box whereas with analog you need a separate wire from the control box to each point to control it. So it saves on a lot of wiring by creating a bus that each point can be connected to.
