Join TCS Engineer Dan as he shows you step-by-step how to install a TCS FL4 decoder into an N Scale Atlas Caboose, wire up some LEDs and add Keep Alive® for steady lighting. Part 1 covers disassembly of the caboose shell, axle replacement, axle wiper installation, axle-to-cab wiring, wiring resistors, and installation of 3 SMLEDs. Part 2 covers decoder wiring, Keep Alive® wiring, soldering and heat shrinking wires, and final product.
Why not dress up your rolling stock and add life to a crucial part of many layouts? Pick up some FL-series decoders from TCS and give it a go! For frustration-free railroading, add in TCS' new miniaturized KA1 and KA2 devices - the perfect fit for many N scale installations.
