On30 / Forney with grinding noise
August 01, 2016, 11:20:15 AM
Hello

I have 3 Forneys and they all have grinding noise when running. The noise is so loud on one that it overpowers the sound.
Any history of this? any fixes?

thanks

On30 / ON30 Trolley DCC instal
April 21, 2011, 12:52:25 PM
Hello,

Searched the old post and came up empty. I want to use the 0n30 trolley chassis/motor for a On30 critter.

Has anyone installed DCC into the trolley? Any tips that can be shared?

thank you

On30 / 4-4-0 DC circuit board is it needed for DCC?

4-4-0 DC circuit board is it needed for DCC?


I have a on30 4-4-0 DCC question. If I do not want to have DC capability for this engine, can I use just the included DCC decoder and eliminate the circuit board? I am trying to fit sound into the tender and I need the extra space. Does the circuit board provide anything but the plug for the decoder?
I would hard wire the decoder, eliminate the circuit board and use the space for the speaker.

Will this work or is the circuit board still needed?

Thank you

On30 / 4-4-0 decoder instal with sound
April 13, 2011, 10:25:05 PM
Hello group,
I have installed the MRD 1665 steam sound only decoder and I am happy with the sound (cannot beat $37.00).
I am having trouble fitting everything in the tender. I have a digitrax decoder that i would like to use instead of the Bachmann decoder. has anyone tried replacing the factor installed DC/DCC decoder and replaced it with a DCC only decoder?

basically I am asking what should I remove.

thanks
