Test stand works great for me, was able to run in and program locomotives with ease.

Sometimes finicky. Otherwise it works.
I bought the 12 piece multigauge pack for use with my N, HO, and I scale equipment. No instructions in the packaging. Will just have to get them from the DCC Concepts .com web site or see youtube reviews. 1st time I put them on my HO track with two different HO locomotives, no response to DCC (massive initial disappointment). Used a digital voltmeter to verify continuity between rail and pick up side plate (good), rail to posts holding the rollers (good), rail to surface of the roller (no continuity?!?!?!). Contacted DCC concepts and they said check the voltage between the rails then at the rollers -- interestingly, it pickup both DC and DCC voltage across the roller surface, so I put a loco on and it worked. Interestingly it now works, but I sometimes have to reposition or wiggle the pieces on the track and at the wheels to get it to work. My guess is the power jumps the ball bearings to the roller surfaces once the rollers are rolling or the wheels contact the center post or side plate to make electrical contact. If I was going to do HO only, the premium 10 piece gold plated may be more reliable. For flexibility and multiple axles, this nickel-silver 12 piece provides more flexibility for the same cost as the gold plated HO set.
