That''s given other manufacturers something to think about. My layout will only be DC, but the DCC videos that I watch the more I think about changing. Martin (Dhaka, Bangladesh)
Train-o-matic, sounds like something from Wallace and gromit. Lovely videos , keep them coming. Steve, 😆😆😆😆
You was surprised we all could tell. Thanks for an informative video on those modules.
Would you reccomend the TTS decoder for the Princess Coronation if using a Select controller, so only sounds that you can use are the first 8?
Very good and useful review. Thank you Jennifer. I will certainly be looking into Tramfabriek and Train-O-Matic.

Hi Jenny, complete nube here I have two of these decoders. The first I put in train worked great so I bought a second one. When I tried to set it up my Pro Cab couldn’t detect it. I swapped it with the first one and it couldn’t detect it in that train either. I replaced number one and that can’t be read either now. Any idea what I have done and more important how to fix it. I appreciate you must get hundreds of requests for help but I would be very grateful if you could help out.. thanks Alan
Nice balanced review. It's great when manufacturers get the decoders properly set up at the factory. I agree with you resisting adding the stay alive capacitor. I get annoyed when soldering on the chip is required. Why provide drop in or pin and socket solutions and then expect us to do fiddly soldering.
nice review jennifer, not a fan of DCC myself, grew up with analogue and I think I will always stick to analogue where possible, but it is nice to see those chips worked wonderfully with those locos. keep it up as always
Hi
I use the Hornby e-link would the e-link with railmaster recognise the decoder or would we have to wait for Hornby to update railmaster.
Very nice for a Romanian company to send some stuff to try, although they have a Dutch email address. Realy good of them to supply all the info as well, the UK take notice. I notice you are using the GaugeMaster controller, how do you set the lights and sound to work? The 'chips' seem to do what they say on the tin. Thanks for bringing the product to our attention, Jenny.
Because I have a limited area for modelling, I would love to know if those trams pictured are available? Have you installed DCC in any Pecketts? Do you ever "fine tune" your locomotives? I know we would check for binding as most motors move a measurable distance when the direct changes, and can physically bind. We would "de-burr" all gears, adjust, clean and lubricate as required. Do the locomotives have flywheels, and are they balanced? Often times even motor commutators and brushes required adjustment, burring, cleaning. Of course, no three pole motor will ever be as smooth as a 5 pole or 7 pole skew-wound motor. Most adjustment were done with fine files, though moto-tools are useful. Also, we often found that side rods on steam locomotives would bind, requiring disassembly and adjustment, lubrication. Just like smooth track work, mechanical adjustments have been worthy of the effort many times. A good running locomotive on DC, should be even better on DCC. As always, great video. I look forward to your next offering. Be well.
Thanks for a good review, Jenny. In passing are there any chips that you have used successfully with the old Hornby X03 / X04 motors?
Very informative and fair review so thanks very much. Being a DCC novice I was getting Hattons & Rails to fit the decoders for locos I bought from them. But I bought from Hornby a Collectors Club Wainwright H class and so I naively thought that if I bought a Hornby 8 pin decoder it would fit. When I tried I just could not get the harness element to sit so the body would refit ok. I looked on Hattons website for a H Class to see what decoder they recommended and low & behold it was a direct fit small decoder. So I ordered one and it fitted perfectly. So why do manufacturers design locos where their own decoders don't fit !!!! One thing that annoys me is that manufactures make models where fitting decoders can be an difficult in so called DCC Ready locos.

Hi jenny found your review of Trainomatic DCC chips of interest. Who are the UK suppliers of these interesting DCC chips please. Nice you see being interviewed at Alexander Palace back in March. TONY
Hi Jenny
Looking for a chip for the bachmann usa tank 6 pin dcc decoder do you think this 6 pin train o magic chip would be a fit for this loco many thanks
Andy
Hi. Yes the direct plug 6pin decoder does fit and work in that model.
Hi thanks for getting back so quickly for me I will purchase one of them thanks very much Jenny much appreciated
Interesting alternative
Would you recommend them ?
Jenny Jenny Jenny, they are Decoders not Chips, chips go fish also at most the microprocessor on the decoder could be called a chip but the whole unit is a Decoder not a chip ;)
Hi
Where's the link to the website?
In the description?
Hi Jenny who is Cindy Busch and how can I remove her subscription. Any help would be appreciated.
They do look very small and I would say not much larger than a sim-card.
I love keep alive. In steamers transformers there performance
