Anyway, more playing :)

I'll let you know how it goes.

And here's 'more playing...'

Just two pics, but fun ones...

One of these pics shows how old my ccd in my digital camera is--all the 'blank'
pixels.  Eh, it still works and is now on picture 9600ish...

Anyway, I set the exposure to 16 seconds, turned off all the lights in the house
(and it was around 11 p.m. and dark outside anyway), and sent the engine around
the track with the light on.  Turned out nicely.

Didn't have alotta time to play with other things last night--the switches seem
to be better for some reason--I think the lighter engine has more difficulty
staying on the rails--my heavier engine (more bricks in it) works much better.

Tonight I'm trying the two motorized truck on the same Loco # on the same
engine--it should work flawlessly across switches, gaps and whatever else.

Iirc, you can have more than 1 motor on the same Loco # in DCC without too much
difficulty.  Anyway, I'll let y'all know how it turns out.

Yep--Larry hit it on the head--the isolated section is so there isn't one set of wheels on one polarity, and the other set of wheels on the reverse polarity-- (see if this font is really courier ;) ) ###...### Track TTTTT O O ###...### Track (...)
