PS3 Upgrades? | O Gauge Railroading On Line Forum

Marty ROGR Forum Member

Checking the MTH website, I don't see PS3 upgrade kits. Googling showed me a thread on this site, from last Christmas. Any word on availability? Hoping they are smaller and hence easier to put in Polar Express...

Hi Marty R,

It's going to be a while until the PS3 kits are released. Probably more like next Christmas.

No ps3 upgrades for at least 2 more years If ever.

A problem is that every bulb will need to be replaced with a LED as the PS-3 does not drive bulbs. Also the speed sensor is different and wider than the original PS-2 tach boards. There could be many problems more so than a PS-2 upgrade.

After reading about the signal strength issues a number of people are having with PS/3, I'm in no hurry for PS/3 upgrade kits!
