Noel,

I'll bet that, as with many Kalmbach books, it is directed to the HO'er. If you have specific questons, you might ask them here.

Just a thought.

The wiring principles are sound, but you have to bump up the wire gauge to compensate for the increased current and length of wire runs.

Not sure what type system your interested in learning about, but I will presume DCC. I learned a lot from this website, and it's free info too.

Thank you all.

Actually, I am in S postwar... I've just realized I posted on the O forum... should have posted in S.

Nevertheless, I appreciate your feedback... all suggestions build up my self confidence ! Electricity is sort of a mystery to me.

Thanks again.
