Enjoy watching your videos. In the Kato Mikado video you mentioned adding a keep alive capacitor. What did you use? I recently installed a Lok Sound 5 Micro in a Mikado and the #4 replacement driver with traction tire. Before adding the replacement drive/traction tire to help improve traction electrical pickup was good after not so much. I've been thinking about adding a keep alive. What are your thoughts about keep alive circuits? Could you do a video? Any thoughts about using Tantalum over Electrolytic caps because of N scale space limitations?
Loved seeing my Mikado up and running again!
