DCC and Live Frogs Need Explaination
Bill asks about DCC and live frogs:
“Which is better if building a DCC layout: live (powered) frogs in switches or the non-electro frog type? I see many different opinions about this in the trade press but no definite answer.”
Frogs are the frog-legs shaped rails towards the wide end of a turnout and they get power from the points (the moveable rails that you switch with switch motors).
