Up to this point in the layouts life the DCC system has been sitting on the floor under the staging yard. The command station and power supply are attached to a piece of plywood with a small section of track with the output being being at a jack that the layout can be connected to. I have often taken this setup with me to Ntrak layout setups to use as a programming station.
What I decided on was a similar setup that is mounted in a drawer that is directly under the bridge on the Harney section. This is right next to the work bench so a test / programming track can be on the bench where I wanted it. I actually reused the same drawer hardware salvaged from the last layouts control panel.
There is room underneath to set up a spare computer to use as a JMRI programmer.
So now with the old setup gone and not available to take to shows I think I better get going on building the long promised programming station for the Ntrak club.
Very nicely done Brad.
