New Engine Codes For DCC Operation

Ron is a newbie who needs some advice from those who have been in the hobby for some time. Ron asks readers:

“I am fairly new at this hobby. I have built a new layout using DCC controls. I have a number of engines and cannot reset the controller to the new engine codes. I have followed the manufactures directions but obviously doing something wrong. Any help appreciated.”

Your locomotives probably have a decoder that needs more power to program. DCC Specialties makes a programming booster that goes between the command station and the programming track. There are several DCC vendors that offer the booster on the Internet.
