Reply to "UPDATE From MTH....DCS/Proto-Sound Lives On....!"

 "Just got a PS3 upgrade kit in the mail today, will be upgrading my PS1 upgraded to PS2 N&W 611 Class J.   Looking forward to quilling that wonderful steam whistle.   Upgrade is super easy since its really just swapping out the control board.   I did all of the hard work earlier when I upgraded my Class J from PS1 to PS2.   As a bonus I'll have a perfectly good PS2 board I can upgrade a PS1 engine."

I'm sure you know. Just so it's clear for others reading this, remove any resistors that you attached to the LEDs that were to the head and tail lights, ditch lights, etc. for the PS2 board set. Leave markers alone I believe? … and the polarity of the wires gets reversed from PS2 to PS3.

Nope. PS3 steam upgrade kit uses a PS32 board (PS3 diesel board with a top board containing PS2 3V connectors added). It's set up to run incandescent bulbs. Adding LEDs is the same between a PS2 and PS32 board: https://ogrforum.ogaugerr.com/...h-locomotives?page=1
