Hello All: I am interested in modeling the FM C-truck Trainmaster and the FM B-truck H16-44. I figure I'll use the USA Trains PA and F unit motor blocks with the associated truck mounting blocks. Since I don't either full model on hand, I'm curious about what the chassis looks like in general and how the truck mounting blocks attach to it. I'm hoping one of more of you out there, if you have these models, will pop the shell off and take some photos of the chassis and the attachment of the motor truck/truck mounting blocks and post them. It would be very helpful. I also don't know the make of the female pin connector that goes into each motor truck. Any identifying info on that connector would be super. If that ID isn't available, a photo or two and measurements of the female pin connector into the motor truck would also be a Big Help. Thanks for any assistance, Hilary Smith In the Pacific Northwest, USA -
Hi , I am A Brit And have just completed a rewire and conversion to Digital Control for a USATrains G Gauge BigBoy. I have a quiery regarding the four sensor units which are connected and wired into the engine. My control system comprises a ZIMO MX695KV engine decoder together with a Pheonix PB11 sound decoder and all sounds are triggered via speed (voltage) initiation in the controller. Since the sensors exist it would be good to utilise them to trigger sounds. Can anyone advise what each of the sensors (cylindrical 2-3inch long encased in a tube) which are sited as follows: 1) A- the wiring emerges together with the front pickup wiring in the forward part of the engine. 2) B- the wiring emerges together with the rear pickup wiring in the rear portion of the engine. 3&4 C&D) - the wiring for two sensors emerges on their own from the centre portion of the engine Any information would be appreciated Pommanz (Mike Lisle)
