Track Dcc
RC control -> BATTERY OPERATED <- HO trains?
I think if the HO scale trains could be powered by onboard batteries (or batteries performed on a notional unit, tender, or rolling stock) and radio control (RC as a plane or car), then the full number of wiring issue leave and would be more prototypical operation. BUT .... no one seems to be doing anything like this. DCC is not near. But I bet I'm not the only one who has thought in this and waiting for someone or done a conversion, or know who does them? Your thoughts? Jim: Actually, Jim, the power could be used to charge the batteries. Loop track work that electricially complicated (and reverse, etc.) can only be isolated "dead." At some point, the batteries will die, of course, but the replacement would be relatively rare, right?
Charging batteries is a bit of a pain ... Well, you know. Batteries wear out, and add to the expense of an already expensive hobby. Radio control is not really necessary because its in the same room as the train. You need something better than the CCD, but I think you can do with a radio
