These are N scale models of UK style level crossings which are preassembled with lights and sound and come complete with Peco™ static level crossing barriers and fence as shown in the photo. They are easy to fit needing just a 10mm diameter hole drilled in your baseboard and the model is held in place by a special flush Mounting Cap (included). Electrically these are very easy to wire up as all connections are by push fit single core wires. They can be powered by any 9-18V DC supply, DCC or a 9 volt battery.
Manual or Automatic control
The level crossing lights and sounds can be controlled in a number of ways:
1) A switch connected between the power supply and the level crossing.
2) Controlled completely automatically by a Track Sensor via Layout Link
3) Switched by a Mimic Switch connected via Layout Link
4) If layout is DCC via your controller which is easily set up using One Touch DCC
The idea of Digitrains was conceived over the dinner table and grew very slowly as doubts calmed missionary zeal. We finally took the plunge in January 2005 and are fortunate to be dealers for some of the best and most user friendly DCC equipment available.
