Adding Inductors to eliminate track signal level
reductions:
In one case I found that running a long
fully lit passenger train (10+ cars) resulted in reduced signal levels when a
signal test was run with the lead engine. I found that adding a
small inductor (Choke Coil)
on the positive and neg lead wires going to the lights on each car eliminated
any change/reduction. (Suggest using a 100uh or greater) As matter of
course, I've since added these
inductors on all my passenger cars.
