Reply to "LED 's for RK switches ?"

Thank you Stan 

I don't have a pair of needle nose players like your's.   .. . sooo.... I'll need 17 sideways and 34 upwards ........when you get time . 🤡      I think I should take your advice and "do not try this at home ".

 

I have converted 10 passenger cars and 16 cabooses with GRJ's LED modules and actually considered removing the 17  " green " bulbs at least in the lever controllers and a half dozen lockon bulbs.

I have a 30 inch wide by 72 inch long yard . In the 30 in. width I have 8 rail lines made from 4 entrance 031 sw. and each line split with 072 s.    I then split off  the end  with an 072 for two yard switchers.  Before I added this yard with the switches , I don't remember having  a loss of sound from an RK Allegheny above 26 SMPH like I'm getting now.

This yard seems like it would be the easiest area to use the auxiliary power method on . The main area ( 5' by 16' ) has the switches scattered . 

 

I run a Lionel Trainmaster 1034 for signal lights , yard lights and some buildings.  Two fixed channels on the TIU with a Z1000 on each set of rails.

Would you use the Z1000 auxiliary ports for the switches or the Trainmaster ?

Thanks again Stan.
