DIGITAL  SERVICES

  Details N Scale  has many services for the DCC  modeler. For mobile decoding, we presently decode the three scales that we provide products. The majority of our expertise is with N  scale. We use and recommend Aztec's Track Master® milled frames for applicable N scale application.  We specialize with custom lighting with LEDs exclusively. We use industry standard Kapton Tape for securing decoders and insulating from frame shorts. We use styrene for insulating LEDS and non wrapped decoders such as Lenz Decoder Products. We are experienced with Digitrax®, TCS®, NCE®, and Lenz® decoders.

We have some areas of decoding that we do not serve. We do not do steam installations at this time and prefer to stay in the diesel decoding. We now install ESU Lok Sound Decoders for N Scale diesel locomotives. We have milling services for those locos needing space for sound decoders.

 Projects sent to us should be new or in good working order for Digital service or conversions. Decoding a loco that performs poorly in DC mode will not run better in DCC. We can provide cleaning and some minor repairs if needed.  We can purchase decoders for your install if you so choose. We will return ship free in the US and Canada for orders over $150.00. This could be one order, multiple locos. Below are basic fees associated with our Decoder Services.
