82 Model Railway for Beginners, Fitting DCC Decoder and Lights Installation to a Hornby Class 43 

Thanks Stewart. I have a test track connected to the dcc bus for mine, but that is a good idea to wire a plug in.

Thanks for watching, glad it was helpful!

Thank you.

Thank you Anthony.

Thank you, glad you found it useful.

Thank you Richard.

Thanks John. Bit more tricky on N gauge 😁. OO is small enough for me.

Thank you Stuart. If you search ebay for tower/lighthouse LED's you should find plenty or google bright components. I used the 2mm leds

@@DonegalDadRail Thank you for that quick reply, I have a ton of 125s 14 pairs as in engine and dummy also a lot of deltics about 10 and then go forward a bit 2 eurostars and 3 virgin pendolenos with about 8 steam era the layout that I am putting together is 60" or 1525mm x 40" or 1015mm with a detachable sections to be added to that of 1525mm x 915 mm I am pushed for space and using a sectional approach is the only way I can build it. I an hoping to have three running tracks and then some sidings. When I first looked at DCC the decoders were a bit cheaper so now I am debating to stick with DC or not. I have wired in LEDS to some of my 125s and they work just fine. I might wire the layout for DC and have a switch to run of DCC for a fee locos.I did find some 2 mm leds that might work better than the 3mm I am using. I should add you video is how it should be done straight to the point put this here take that there so many well intended videos ramble on and on Cheers for now

Thanks Nicholas, to do the decoder and lights should only take a couple of hrs.

Hi. it is usually 12v DC out of a decoder. you should check with a multimetter if you can. I use 1k resistor, if you find the lights to bright you can connect another resistor in series to lower the brightness. Hope this helps.

Thanks Charlie, powered points don't make a difference.
