DC and DCC Stay-Alive Modules for Model Trains
Stay-alive modules store a small amount of energy to help compatible model locomotives bridge brief interruptions in electrical pickup. They can improve running over points and areas where wheel-to-rail contact is momentarily lost. Compatibility varies: DC and DCC installations have different requirements, and modules are not interchangeable in every application. Check the product instructions, decoder support and available space before fitting. Clean track and reliable pickups remain essential for good performance.
