Garden Railroad Explained | Piko RC Controller

[@mikerupp6034]

Just setting up my garden railway. Does this work in conjunction with digital LGB locomotives too? I mean can I replicate a horn sound as well on my Stainz or does it only support analog sounds? Thanks in advance and great video

Hi, is there any way you could activate a horn, or bell with this system?

[@TrainBrosRailway]

No, the only way you would be able to is with a track magnet.

Can this controller activate the sound, and smoke on a USA Trains G scale GP9?

[@TrainBrosRailway]

No, it just controls the track power. I would assume that the loco is in stock form so there would be switches on the bottom. and there might be a magnetic reed switch.

Thats a lot cooler than my wired controller system, but mine was a lot cheaper since it was $25 usd and uses phone cable that I can find 100ft for cheap.

[@TrainBrosRailway]

What brand of controller do you have ?

@@TrainBrosRailway its an old CMP controller, its like the USA trains train power 10

@@stephengerlach828 Ok, but I wish the power 10 was like $25

@@TrainBrosRailway Thats the benefit that I got from buying an old, used power pack from a local hobby shop. My next project is getting new track or rail clamps, both routes aren’t cheap.
