Dcc Ho Scale Trains
RC controlled -> BATTERY <- HO trains?
I think that if the Ho Scale Trains could be powered by onboard batteries (or batteries carried on a notional unit, tender, or rolling stock) and then radio control (like a RC plane or car), the full number of wiring track and would be more prototypical operation. BUT .... no one seems to be doing anything close to it. DCC is not close. But I bet I'm not the only one thought about this and hoping someone else has or conversion, or know who makes them? Your thoughts: Actually Jim, Jim, the power of the track could be used to charge the batteries. Track work is complicated electricially (such as reverse loops, etc) can be isolated only "Dead". At some point, batteries will die, of course, but the replacement would be relatively rare, right?
Battery charging is a bit of pain ... well, you know. The batteries wear out, and that would add to the expense of an already expensive hobby. radio control is not really necessary because its in the same room as the train. You need to do something better than the CCD, but I think you can do with a radio
