As of right now, our plan is to make those cars exclusive to the set.

HO / Niagara 4-8-4 wiring
Last post by Hardracer - Today at 06:35:01 AM
Hi all,

I recently purchased a used Niagara 4-8-4. It wouldn't run and I discovered a wire from one of the two pick-ups in the tender had broken off.

My question is this, does anyone have a wiring diagram for this particular loco. The wire is the orange wire from the tender pick up. I think I know where it needs to go but I want to make sure.

Cheers from Australia.

Are the exhibit cars and Parlor car that are in the Limited Edition AFT set going to be available separately?  I already have the GS4 and the track.

It does not have a DCC socket.

I turn it down all the way and it still seems to be going to fast back and forth.

Any suggestions?

Thanks

For now it is only available with DCC Sound on Board, but we'll consider DCC Ready for a future release.

Hi Sean,

The Durango & Silverton set loco has had an 8-pin connector since it was first introduced. For the next production run, we will be upgrading it to a 21-pin connector, but the sets on the market currently all have the 8-pin connector.

I've noticed a lot of model train issues end up being something simple like dirty track, wheel pickup, or a loose connection. A quick clean and checking the wiring carefully can save a lot of frustration. Sometimes these locomotives are more sensitive to power issues than people expect.
