Description

Tom kicks things off with an undecorated SW1200, walkingthrough his prep work before paint, lighting, and decoder installation. Meanwhile, George pulls his popular General off the shelf for a BLU-1100 upgrade. He covers what he customized on the model, how he dialed in thedecoder settings to accurately replicate the real locomotive, and why the BLU-1100 is such a solid choice.

They also dive into an important topic: decoder safety. AllSoundTraxx decoders are designed with built-in safeguards—so you cannot damage a decoder by changing CVs. While you might get an unexpected result, a reset will always bring you back. With Blunami, you can even save your preferred CV setup, experiment with new features, and easily restore yourchosen settings without reverting to factory defaults.

Tune in to see the upgrades, learn helpful tips, and get theconfidence to experiment with your own decoder settings!
