Description

The Digital controller is connected to the track in order to supply power and the digital control signals. These signals are sent from the controller, through the track, and into the locomotive where it is then interpreted by a small digital chip, also known as a Decoder. The decoder then powers the motor accordingly, turn on the locomotives lights, or even sound the horn.
