| Dc throttles available? |

Over the last two months the NCE Powercab and the Bachmann EZ Command i had quit. I suspect my grandson got hold of the Powercab and used it as a hammer. The Bachmann I have no idea. And they are long out of warranty.
So, I am considering going back to dc permanently. I have an MRC Tech 4 260 but would like to have walk around to, but I can find nothing online.
Anybody know where I can find walk around throttles for dc? I run ho and the throttles would need to be rtr. I don't play with electronics, they bite back.
Thanks.

After I had laid all my track,(Atlas code 100 flex and Peco small radius turnouts)I installed the bus and feeder wires.I then tested the layout and everything ran real good.Now that the ballasting is done I deceided to test the layout again and to my suprise I have 3-4 dead tracks.
I checked everything out and there doesn't seem to be anything wrong.Anyone have any idea as to what might be happening? Does it matter how the bus wires are connected to the power pack? In my opinion this only effects which way forward and reverse are.It shouldn't effect power to the track.
Thanks for any help.

Hi folks!
After a long search for C&O track plan from Handley, West Virgina I have no other idea as to ask you all! Is there anybody who can provide me with steam era track plans, building sheets and other informations about Handley W.Va. I want to built a huge sectional layout with the center of operations in Handley.
A request to COHS was without a response till now!
Hope you can help!!!!
Greetings from Bavaria!
