Part of the July 2016 issue of Model Railroad Hobbyist magazine.
Wow, the r/c trucks are amazing! The backup lights even worked on the F-850!
You have understated the sonic improvement that is the Tsunami2. The DDE provides a much closer to prototype sound experience. Well, done, Soundtraxx.
Those new decoders sound great!
OMG! JOHN TYSON IS A MAD GENIUS!!! 😁 Surely, SOME company would like to go into production on HO Scale R/C cars & trucks!
That could help foster a whole new segment of youngsters into the Hobby. Us old timers too! It's just beyond COOL.
Ken, fabulous!!!! Keep them coming. You are a great asset to the hobby. Beautiful!!
Great Video as per normal Ken. Thank you very much for the inclusion of the N scale stuff.
Heads up.. I just talked with NCE at the NMRA Show. they also use RJ12, 6 wire phone jack to Run the system around the layout. I miss spoke in this show about an 8 pin jack....... We Will do a complete full blown over view of the NCE DCC train controllers in a up coming show.
Ken Patterson what episode did you do the review of the NCE system products

Ken Patterson I love your videos that’s why I can’t wait tell the next month check out my channel I am 11 so it’s not as good as yours I love the way your layout is set up that is how I want it when I grow up
awesome video as always good sir...just wanted to say I was reading through the latest issue of mr...noticed an ad for scale trains buffer car...thought to myself man that scenery looks very familiar...looked at the bottom of the ad...sure enough...photo by Ken Patterson...great job good sir...
NO, That is Ken Johnson. Doing the Scale trains photos. I am planning an interview with him for the show. He is the same person that shot the photos in coach Yards book on Brass, Fred hill showed me his work 12 years ago. He is really, Really, good and did not learn it from me. I cant wait to meet him on the phone.

Nice work Craig. Skype is great!
Congratulations Ken! Your videos are awesome, very interesting and full of information!
I'd like to get in touch with John Tyson, may I have an email to contact him??
As an FYI too, E units never had dynamic brakes.
The E8 had it as an option, and was the first E unit one to offer it.
Again Ken another great video full of great stuff. Keep up the good work sir. I really like the RCc cars, does each car have to have a remote or can one remote run different cars?
jeff
one remote runs them all
It's 2019, can we can an update from Craig on his ferry docks please?
If you could find a way to transfer power through the road to the car it could run as long as the trains. Kind of like how bumper cars get power through the roof of the building their in. Would love to see ho scale rc races on modeled race tracks
They're**
Ken:When making your own cables it is important to match colors. Telephone wire is made pin one to pin six. Data wire is made pin one to pin one. LocoNet needs data cables for some, but not all, of it's connections. It is also important to be sure that your splitters and connectors are six pin and do not reverse the connections.
Automatic notching is so gimmicky. It didn't impress me on the TCS decoders, it doesn't impress me on these either. It's purely reactive, and sounds good only on a RCL locomotive where they do the same thing.
