The Module Has Landed

Finally, I have finished all of the wiring for my two end modules (#1 Joint Line Loop and #1A South Denver — also known as Power Districts 10 & 11), dropped the Modules down from their 45 degree height to zero, or flat, installed the DCC Concepts Alpha Panel (same as a RRamp meter) and wired up the short indicator LED’s. The next job is to actually run a Loco on the rails to find all of my wiring cock-ups. Then I can connect to the temporary loop on the other side of the Denver Union Terminal tracks and be able to run trains in a loop. This will allow me to speed match all of my Locomotives, while I run them in and look for issues.

Note the AML “Dime for Scale”.
40 Turnout screw connections on the left and up to 50 track blocks on the right.

You only need 2 wires for DCC.
