    Hi Jonathan and congratulations for your state-of-the-art new layout! I have a couple of questions if you don’t mind: 1. are the tracks nailed or screwed on the elevated straight long section by the fence and on the wooden trestle? And 2. Are the switches all manual and why,, if this is the case ? Thanks and keep the great job going 👏👏👏

    • @TheeFishGuy
      @TheeFishGuy 4 дні тому

      @@itadrummer1 the only places where the track is fastened are the bridges and anywhere there’s wood, ie., the helix, fort and turn around. All the switches are manual simply because there’s 135 of them! If there were 100% weather proof wireless option to remote control them I probably still wouldn’t do it simply because there’s so many. Not to mention sometimes small debris gets in the way of throwing the switch simply because they are out in the elements. Switching by hand allows the person switching them to make 100% sure they’re actually in the position they want them to be in!

    Dear Jonathan. I exactly followed your instructions and rebuilt my USA Trains Caboose to LED battery power. Everything so far works fine. However, it seems that I am having a battery draining even though the main switch beneath the car is set to "all lights off". After two days the 9V battery block is completely emptied although not in use. Clearly, there is a miminum power running through the circuit board on the bottom of the car, which is enough to light up a low power consumption LED at the end of the car without having to activate the main switch so "all lights on". Do you have any advice how I can get rid of this leakage current? Thx in advane, Tom.
