RMweb Premium Ray H Posted December 21, 2013 RMweb Premium Share Posted December 21, 2013 Although technically a potential DCC problem, it is probably easier to obtain an answer by posting here. Apologies if my thinking is flawed. Does anyone know the current draw of a Bachmann Brassworks Class 08 diesel shunter? We were having problems testing one yesterday on DCC and suspect that either the NCE PowerCab controller or the decoder wasn't rated high enough.

Mark 37 Posted December 21, 2013 Share Posted December 21, 2013 I can't remember which button you use (not really played enough with mine) but I believe theirs a button to show current on the NCE display. I hope this helps a little. Mark Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
corax67 Posted December 21, 2013 Share Posted December 21, 2013 I used to run mine on a Lenz Gold fitted with a USP Power 1 module, same set up as the Bachmann Brassworks J94 I owned and both loco's ran faultlessly both at home and on our club layout. In my experience they are particularly smooth and well running models with current draw under 1amp even with a decent load on. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
