The AC/DC DLX is a low cost, extremely rugged, compact Trainmaster command control upgrade for any AC or DC, single or dual motor engine. It comes complete with a plug-in Lionel R2LC Receiver, and a versatile mounting bracket which allows you to mount it just about anywhere inside your engine. Despite it's small size, the AC/DC DLX, when properly installed, will handle as much as 8 Amps of continuous DC current, or 10 Amps of AC current without overheating, making it suitable for any O-Gauge or Large Scale engine.
The AC/DC DLX can be used stand alone, or in conjunction with Railsounds. The two systems connect via a simple cable included with the Railsounds kit. Larger, single board systems would have to be sawed in half to fit where the AC/DC DLX and our Railsounds kits can be installed. Once you have performed an installation with the AC/DC DLX, you will appreciate how its components afford you maximum flexibility, allowing you to work around motors, loudspeakers, or other constraints inside the locomotive.
The AC/DC DLX is manufactured from the highest quality components. Motor and power connections to the board are made with highly flexible, high strand count Wire-Plex wire. This reduces the chance of a wire breaking from its soldered connection to a motor that is subject to constant movement.
Accessories such as engine lighting, smoke units, and coil couplers connect to the AC/DC DLX through a rugged terminal block with screw-down connections. There are no flimsy connectors or fragile wires to break off and complicate your installation. We are so confident that the AC/DC DLX will give you many years of trouble free operation that we have extended the product warranty to five years.
If you are considering upgrading your locomotive fleet at the lowest possible cost without compromising performance, the AC/DC DLX is the right choice.
