TomJ Posted November 9, 2023 Share Posted November 9, 2023 On my last layout I used an 8 way DCC Concepts accessory decoder to operate the points. Now I’m building a new layout and I have more points! The updates DCC Concepts decoders are out of stock everywhere. Can anyone suggest a simple alternative. I don’t want anything fancy or complex - just a way I can operate the points from my NCE Powercab I model in N gauge and all the point motors are fitted so it’s too late to suggest a different way of operating then! Thanks. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
WIMorrison Posted November 9, 2023 Share Posted November 9, 2023 YAMORC YD8044, YD8008 or YD8116 should would depending on which turnout motors that you have - solenoid can mean several types of motors. https://www.dcctrainautomation.co.uk/yamorc.html Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

jamesed Posted November 10, 2023 Share Posted November 10, 2023 The DCC Concepts products are filtering through in small batches but most suppliers have back orders to fulfill which is why they don't often appear as being available. If you are happy to wait a short while then if you order direct from DCC Concepts you will get them the quickest. They fulfil their own back orders before sending new stock out to dealers. However you will have to pay the full price wheras most dealers discount by about 15%. It might also be worth talking to DCC Concepts at the Warley show in case they've held back some stock to sell there. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TomJ Posted November 10, 2023 Author Share Posted November 10, 2023 I didn’t realise they were coming out again. I worried they were a discontinued product Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamesed Posted November 10, 2023 Share Posted November 10, 2023 (edited) I think it's all part of the worlwide component shortage and securing production time at the factory in China. Drop them an email and ask. I find they are always helpful in responding. They may even pick up on this thread and you'll get a reply from @DCCconcepts .
