Santa finally came today. 3rd rail n&w y6a Pics added

FM Former Member
Finally got my Christmas present; A new 3rd rail n&w y6a #2165. I hope you enjoy the pictures and the video will be added shortly. The engine is beautiful and with some lionel premium smoke fluid it has no trouble at all smoking out the house.

Y6A

Thanks!

3rd rail uses the Electric RailRoad Lionel TMCC with RS 4.0

I'm sorry to say I don't know the make of the rollers, they work very well, the only problem I have is I made the board and rollers for a lionel 2-8-8-2 y3 so other engines won't work properly on it.

Aaron,

Very Nice. What operating system does 3rd rail use!

Who makes those test rollers? I really would like to get some of those if they work well.

The rollers came from davis electronics in Milford, Oh who is now out of business. This particular roller allows the use of the center rail of the track which provides a much lower train so it looks like it's still on the track.

Using alligator clips tends to be a handful if you know what I mean.
