Hi,
I have just started venturing into N gauge DRG Epoch II and was hoping for a bit of advice:
(1) Which DCC decoders do others use in Fleischmann N gauge steam locos?
I have found a couple of excellent german sites that show how to do the conversions (am fluent enough in German to use these), but these either refer to Twin Digital or older decoders. Does anyone have any experience with current DCC decoders. If so, what have you used?
(2) What would I need to take into account when converting OO / HO trackplans?
I am planning on using Peco code 55 streamline. Could I just shrink dimensions by half? Anything else to bear in mind? And what about curve radii? I see that the smallest curve on N is 12". Does Fleischmann stock tend to cope with this?
Many thanks,
Walter
