Starting the RC conversion conversation...

Yes in fact a no brainer, ...

It must be the heat...

Question: is it smart to disconnect the wheels and pickups when converting to battery power? I can imagine the current flowing through the tracks into another loco..?

I do have 2 conversion where I added a DPDT switch to switch between battery and track, just in case I needed track power, though never used it.

Cambrai is on display at the Irchester Narrow Gauge Railway Museum if you want to see one for real - Irchester Narrow Gauge Railway Museum - Wikipedia

Didn't Cambrai used to be in a museum at Towyn? Or is my brain scrambled?
