N-scale locos are frequently split frame design. Also, this
loco has many common parts with Kato N-scale locomotives.
My cleaning and lubrication techniques cover a wide range
of locos.
This column is based on a lot of information presented in my
earlier columns, specifically
Wired Decoder Installation: January and February 2012:
The videos in column allow you to look over my shoulder while
I do this installation. I worked to show and explain what I was
doing along the way. I hope you’ll find it a useful tool.
I recommend the HD version, as the details may get lost on the
SD version. The numbers in the headings in this column refer to
the sections of the video. This column plus the video is a “must
have” for anybody installing DCC into split-frame locomotives.
