I was good friends with the inventor of the BCR, wayne renga. Unfortunately he passed away a couple years ago but I used to help him make BCRs in his basement and repair trains. Great product

@PghTrainFanatic 4 года назад

Oh wow that interesting and sad that he passed away. It’s definitely a great product! Thanks Zaine!

Ok now I have to do this to all my PS2 loco’s!!

@PghTrainFanatic 4 года назад

wait til they die bro then do it! lol

@bernardconeghen 3 месяца назад

the real trick is do not turn up the transformer power high right off do it slow on proto 1 but you are so right everything is much better enjoy

@tristanmundis3040 4 года назад

Those older Mth Rs-3s are some of the best deals on the market. You can get the ps2 ones for around $125-175 all day long!

@PghTrainFanatic 4 года назад

yep! you're correct I snagged this one for $150 bucks!

@mamanbear1 3 года назад

Bought several of these because of your recommendation. I have a PS 1 MTH Big Blow with mediocre sound it - now sounds better than new. Thanks - it smokes up the room and is beautifully loud.

@chiconian49 4 года назад

Great tip. MTH gets a bad rep because people do not maintain the battery in their loco. I presently have the MTH green battery in my one and only MTH Proto Loco. I will save the upload to my favorites when it comes time to change it. Thanks

Great thanks Lance! glad to help

@ajmayowskijr 4 года назад

Great demonstration Nick. I replaced the battery in my Texas Special F3.

@PghTrainFanatic 4 года назад

Cool thanks Al! These are a lifesaver for older MTH engines!

@phillipsakalik4877 4 года назад

Very cool. That RS-3 was a great find Nick! If you’re ever looking to sell it, I’d take it off your hands! 😂 Need a locomotive like that to pull my military train.

@PghTrainFanatic 4 года назад

Thanks Phillip! lol the rs3 is a nice engine, I might weather it!

@northpennvalleysteamrailroad 4 года назад

@PghTrainFanatic very nice! I like to see you do a review on the BCR with the plug. My PS2 engines have a blue pack in them.

@PghTrainFanatic 4 года назад

I think My Q2 has the BCR2. They replace the blue plastic wrapped AA and AAA style batteries in MTH locos.

@trainlover9943 4 года назад

I just used the BCR2 for a subway set. I was shocked by the size of the unit. Its 3/4 the size of the original battery, very tiny.

@trainlover9943 4 года назад

Nice video and installation guide! A few notes however, first why did you run the engine with the white battery in it? That's basically a recipe for disaster. Anytime I get a 5v board engine, I always check the battery before running. Second, I personally would recommend not using a BCR in a 5V board engine, its been noted that it can cause issues to the charging circuit. My go to for a 5v board engine (in terms of batteries) are EBL batteries from Amazon. Hope this is helpful!

@PghTrainFanatic 4 года назад

i ran the engine with the white battery for a min to see if it worked.

@TheTrainAttic Год назад

Nice I have an old proto 1 mth that won’t run probably a battery issue it’s new in the box. I decided to take it out to run but it won’t do anything?

@PghTrainFanatic 11 месяцев назад

Replace the battery with one of these

@gletrains Год назад

Do BCR'S need to be replaced eventually, like do they get old and wear out?

@k4productions 8 месяцев назад

Can you use a regular 9v battery?

@rodolfochaverajr2594 Год назад

Is that a protosound 1 you're running...if so...what are you using to control it with a app?..new to hobby.i have mth protosound 1..

@PghTrainFanatic Год назад

This is Proto 2. Which can be command controlled. Proto 1 is conventional only

@imsofaman 3 года назад

Every time you want to run your engine......do you have to charge it for one minute???

@PghTrainFanatic 3 года назад

Yes you’ll want to let it charge for a minute before running it

@onemorething100 2 года назад

Hello. Hoping you can help me. I have an MTH S2 turbine with PS-1. It worked fine and then got locked in reverse. I then replaced the battery with a BCR. Tried reseting multiple times and will not work. Everything else works as it should. Just will not cycle to forward.

Hi I’m not a repair tech but to me it sounds like the board is going bad. Reach out to Sid from Sidstrains he’s good at what he does.
