I know how to consist my locos with my dynamics system but how do I speed match the locos? Thanks

What brand decoders? CV's 2,3,4,5,and 6 are the ones used, but not all decoders have CV5 and 6.
This should help.  Joe

They are all digitrax126. Thank you

These support CV's 2,3,4,5, and 6. CV2 is start voltage,CV3 is acceleration, CV4 is deceleration,CV5 is top speed and CV6 is mid speed. Be aware that Digitrax decoders have a "switching" mode set by a CV. When a function key is pressed, the speed is cut in half. Down load the decoder manual for more info.   Joe
