joescott Posted December 29, 2014 Share Posted December 29, 2014 Hi ive just recently started building a new layout after being out of the hobby for some years . The only problem is i have lost the wires that supply power to the track . Does this matter ? can i just use two other similar sized cables?Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fishmanoz Posted December 29, 2014 Share Posted December 29, 2014 Joe, note that you have to use a DCC power track or clip, not DC. You can convert a DC by flipping open the cover between the tracks/connections and removing the capacitor you find connected between them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
