  1. Thanks Guys

    I think we are getting close to a solution.

     

    My Revolution is one of the originals. I will need to see if it will even work with the DCC and stuff.

     

    Would 24 volts be a good input voltage? 

     

    Rayman, I sent a message to you, I  would like to talk on the phone. let me know when it would be convenient. 

     

    thanks to you all

  2. Thank you for your response Rayman.

     

    Well the most important question has been answered. I do have a few more.

     

    What is currently inside the engine electrically speaking. I did open the tender to remove the coupler, not much in there.  I don’t want to open the engine until I am ready to convert. Too many fragile parts.

     

    As is, does the engine run off track power like any other engine?  Can I use a regular DC transformer to check the lights and motors?  The manual is not clear.

     

    Here is the controller that I would like to use. Not too complicated and it comes with sound. https://www.revoelectronics.com/product/revolution/on-board-rx.html

     

    It is rated at 5 amps with a peak of 8 amps, is that ok?

     

    Do you sell a battery conversion kit? And most important can you supply instructions?

  3. Hello all

    Help and advice requested.

     

    I recently bought an MTH NYC Hudson, a real beauty. I plan for it to pull my Morning Express consist of milk, freight and passenger cars. 10 to 12 cars in total all scratch built.

     

    It seems to be in almost new condition visually.  I have not applied power to it yet in that I am totally unfamiliar with MTH electronics so I don’t know if and how it runs.

     

    I would like to know if it is possible to convert this engine to dead rail operation. Battery powered and controlled with a Revolution train engineer. (My other engines run on it.)

     

    I would like to have the lighting, smoke and a sound system work.

     

    Thanks in advance.

    I currently have, in gauge 1,  a 70’ steel heavyweight coach and soon to be released 70’ observation.  In the next couple of weeks I will be releasing a 60’ RPO and an 80’ Pullman sleeper.  This summer I will have P70 coaches and a host of other heavyweights.

    I also have a host of head end cars for passenger trains.
