Free Cab-1 system with powermaster
« on: November 13, 2016, 07:53:03 pm »
Hi all, new member here. Have been into conventional O-gauge for many years. I think I came across a pretty good deal. A gentalman gave me a Cab-1 remote w/base along with a powermaster. I have mostly conventional powered locos with a few that have TMCC so with these items I should be able to run boh conventional and my TMCC without buying anything else? Also the throttle control wheel on the remote does not seem to have any resistance or any sort of stoping point. I can just spin it around as much as I want in either direction. Is this normal?

TIA

awesome, thank you. I just tested everything and it seems to be powering up. Looks like I made out pretty good!
