I just could not wait. I added a tethered DC throttle to the layout. Man ! What an improvement ! So much more fun to be able to control the engine on the move without having to run back to the controller after every move. I think the loco runs a bit smoother too. I do wish that the throttle box had a hook or a loop so as to be able to hang it from the facia when not in use but I'm sure I'll come up with something. I also added a cabinet to house all the wiring and whatnot out of the way. I mounted an old wooden box that some booze came in and which I have been meaning to chuck out for ages. (Never throw out anything) and painted it up for fun. ![]() I still need to clean up, shorten some wires, label said wires and do some cable management. But running trains just got a whole lot more fun. ![]() ![]() Thanks for looking in. Dan
