UPDATE. As of April 2024, I made styrene housings for the headlights to replace the plain electrical tape ones shown in the video for engine 407.
This video was very helpful to me. I’ve been trying to convert my old custom-painted Milwaukee Road SW1200 to dcc, and this video helped me do it.
Your videos are fantastic!
I like your motor mount solution! I've never seen anyone do that before!
I think that was the reason why Athearn cast the holes there; specifically for adding 2-56 screws in leiu of the plastic motor mounts.
3M makes an "industrial" double backed tape that works very well; it comes on a roll with red backer.
Great step by step instructions! Great Job. God bless you.
😊Andy I throughly I joyed your video, God speed
Great video. Very informative! Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for great instructions and bible lesson
You are welcome
CAN YOU ADD SOUND? IF SO, HOW?
Just for clarification,
1. amperage draw is based on stall current, not what it draws while pulling. Stall current would be higher.
2. amperage displayed on the throttle is “.” and the number (eg .35, not 35) - huge huge difference.
Exactly.
Thanks for posting, You never did show the fwd light being hooked up to both the yellow wire and white wire pads, did it work? and thanks for posting John 8:12, we need that light everyday.
You are welcome. I assume you are talking about the original bulb one? If so, yes it did. Amen to that!
Great video
Can you tell me what size shrink tube you are using?
I really don’t need all the other sizes.Thanks again for a great
Tutorial.
Those black ones I use are 1mm. You are welcome!
Thanks Andy God Bless
GOD BLESS YOU TOO MY BROTHER IN CHRIST!!!
Great video. I have it linked on my youtube channel for people to watch. Bless you to. Thanks
Awesome, thank you!🙏

Is that newer style motor quieter than the original motor?
Not much quieter. The locomotive itself could affect performance and noise too. I have a small Athearn BB Rio Grande switcher that is reasonably quiet at slow speeds and performs well at slow speeds too for a motor of that type.
