Did you know that when using the sound system as a stationary unit you can also use
our TRAK-DT system to automatically switch speakers about the layout?
Drawings for this type of operation are available upon request and are also located in our Model Railroad Wiring Guide #15. When operating the sound system as a stationary unit you must a separate power source. Item #689, a plug-in wall power supply, is ideal for this. You can also wire a switch to turn off the prime mover and just operate the horn and bell with our items #524 and 618.
