Title: 3 Truck Shay DCC-ready
Post by: JEL1948 on March 14, 2019, 06:46:24 PM
So, what's it mean that my Spectrum 3 truck Shay is DCC ready??

It means that a DCC decoder can be installed if you want.

The general definition is that the motor is already electrically isolated from the frame, and it could also mean that the model may even have a plug for super easy installation.

The HO three truck Shays have an 8 pin socket in the tender.
