Analogue Model Train Sets Explained

An Analog model railway is simply a conventional model railway with conventional analogue controls [DC or AC] to provide a power feed to a piece of track. Any locomotive that is on that piece of track will respond by moving forwards or backwards. The speed and direction of a model train is controlled by varying the voltage and polarity on the rails. The higher the voltage , the faster the locomotive moves, the lower the voltage, the slower the locomotive moves.
