Thanks for the reply. Very useful information. ....ACY, lights are now working-----RICHG, Controller is NCE Power Cab, Scale is HO---------Rogertra, Joe323, Default address out of the box is 3 (Primary standard ?). I will try to assign an extended address to use on the line. I have run into some problems doing this as it involves CV's etc. for different manufacturers. If you have any information regarding adding a secondary address to a bachman train it would be greatly appreciated.
