Is it called a turnout or a switch? Is it HO Gauge or Scale. This is a few things discussed in this video. Also we will talk about the numbered turnouts and code for rail.
Knowing the proper terminology of items in Model Railroading will help all modelers along when trying to describe a situation or part when needed.

In This Shout Out Monday Evening We Will Be Featuring A Model Railroader Who Creates Videos About Digitrax. Since my last video and next video is about using DCC, and Digitrax is a large part of DCC, I thought it only fitting to feature a modeler who features Digitrax.
Every week on Shout Out Monday Evening I feature a different channel that I feel will be of interest to other model railroaders.
Our featured model railroader today is:
Digitrax Dad

The Deland Train Show at Volusia County Fair Grounds in January is their biggest and best of the entire year with two buildings of venders and train layouts. This year was no exception
January 13 & 14 2024 is when this event takes place. We were there on Saturday and had a great time seeing a lot of friends and meeting new ones.
Spent more money than I wanted to spend, but isn't that what this hobby is all about! Train Show Hayl will be reveiled on the Monday Noght Live Stream with a few more video clips of trains as a sneak peek of the next video of the train show coming out later in the week

Cass Scenic Railroad has been on my to do list for a long time. We finally got to ride and enjoy the sights and sounds of Shay # 11. Sitting in the first car was a great experience to catch the sounds of the shays clanking, scraping the guard rails and it's whistle. The engineer on this trip did a great job of entertaining us with his unique versions of standard warnings.
We have so much footage from both my camera and Debbie's. This will be only the first of many videos at Cass Scenic Railroad.
We have seen a lot so far and will continue to see more railroads and model railroads on our month long + trip of a lifetime.
There will be many more videos of Cass and other places we have visited once we get home. This video is just a glimpse of what we experienced along the way.

How to program the Digitrax DS64 for slow motion switch machines such as the Tortoise machines on your DCC layout. Also, we show how to wire the input and output terminals for this operation. This is a simple process once you start using your throttle to key in the correct digits for the type of turnout control you want to control with this unit.
I use the DS64 to control my Tortoise slow motion switch machines on my layout. Before using the DS64 you have to set the OpSwitch 01 to closed for the unit to work with slow motion turnout controls

Bradenton train show is always a great show, this one included. I will be featuring the GFLUG (Greater Florida Lego Users Group) in this video. The Lego display is always my favorite to see.
More clips to come from the show, including me winning one the door prizes, finally!
