i want to wire my led's wired directly in to the switch so i can tell which way the switch is pointing at any given time. but i need to know which wire goes to which rail so that way i can solder the wire properly without to much hassle.


thank you in advance.

P.s
a drawing would be helpful.

back in the 2009 cat. this item number 61806 was there and now i cant find them in the 2011 cat they might have been in the 2010 but i cant recall.

i really want to get them. maybe they just changed the item numbers on them but i cant find them as of now. can someone help me look for them


61806 = GE 44ton Switcher Dcc Equipped Boston and Maine switcher "minute man"

Also does Bachmann have any MEC Engines "Diesel preferred"
also know as Gulford Rail Systems
or Pan AM

Wow. its been a while since i had to come on here and ask for help.

anyways, my switch controller is not working. so i made sure all my connection were correct before i came asking for help. they were. so i undid everything and ohm tested the points on the controller. in my test i found that im only getting power to the center pin on the 3 wire connection. however when i opened the controller to see if anything had come loose or broken to my surprise found nothing. so i ohm tested the switch on the controller and had good ohms on all contacts. so from power in to the switch that designates which way the turnout is pointing is fine but the connections from the switch to where the 3 wire cable connects is the issue. how can i fix this cause i don't want to buy new switches for my turnouts.


thanks for the help.

are bachmann decoders 1 function, 2 function or 4 function

im experimenting with decoder pro

has bachmann made empty shells that can be replaced on locos or do you have to buy a new loco to get a new shell?

do the 3"pieces come in nickel silver? ho/on30.

so what i would like to know is if you are in a really tight predicament could you go with a smaller radius them what is suggested as long as it not overly crazy?
