Creating a Lashup | O Gauge Railroading On Line Forum

Hi Everyone -

Reading Barry's latest DCS edition page 103 for creating a lashup I have a question, after getting both engines started up and moving at suggested 20MPH, is this the point were I stop the engines connect them together and then I am set to go once the lashup name is in the active engine list?

Thanks

Al,

Reading Barry's latest DCS edition page 103 for creating a lashup I have a question, after getting both engines started up and moving at suggested 20MPH, is this the point were I stop the engines connect them together and then I am set to go once the lashup name is in the active engine list?

That's the test to see if the engines both move at about the same speed, which is important t=if they are to be together in a lashup. If you're satisfied that their relative speeds are close, then you should proceed to couple them and create the lashup.

This and a whole lot more is all in “The DCS Companion 3rd Edition", available for purchase from many fine OGR advertisers and forum sponsors, or as an eBook or a printed book.
