Title: Rolling stocks on 'AM&T' in On3 - Mack Railbus
Post by: Yoshi Ueda on August 28, 2023, 09:05:28 PM
Next is the Mack Railbus. I built this model from the Backwoods Miniatures kit. I replaced the front/rear panels of the body with the handmade parts and also replaced the roof with the styrene one. And I used the Faulhaber coreless motor to get the good running performance. As DCC sound decoder I used the ESU Loksound V3.5 sound decoder and installed the modified sound project data on it.

And as always, please check out the short video.

That is really cool! I love the way it sounds, and it runs nice and slow.

Thanks Ray,

I always pay attention to the smoothness at low speed because my layout is so small that low speed operation is very important.

Here is an additional short video. In this video the railbus starts like a rapid start, but this is due to the DCC controller setup (a little excuse).
