Product Information:
Experience Your Layout From the Engineer's Point of View
The Choo Choo Vision 3-Inch Installation Kit lets you install a live wireless camera inside an HO-scale or larger dummy locomotive or piece of rolling stock. The integrated 3-inch flexible lens assembly allows the camera body to be mounted close to the desired viewing location while positioning the lens in the locomotive nose, headlight opening, cab window, or another suitable location.
Watch your railroad in real time from a computer, smartphone, tablet, or compatible throttle display. Capture still images, record video, share your layout with friends, or use the cab view during local and remote operating sessions.
The included DCC Power Converter supplies power from the rails and includes an integrated keep-alive to help maintain operation during brief interruptions in track power. A magnetic ON/OFF switch allows the camera to be controlled without removing the locomotive shell.
Why Choose the 3-Inch Lens?
The 3-inch integrated flexible lens assembly is ideal when the camera body can be mounted close to the desired viewing location. It provides a compact, straightforward installation while minimizing cable routing inside the model.
Choose the 3-Inch Installation Kit when the camera can be positioned directly behind or near the locomotive nose, headlight opening, cab window, or another viewing location.
Easy Installation
Connect the two track-power leads to a powered truck or other suitable DCC pickup point. Secure the camera and DCC Power Converter inside the shell, route the integrated flexible lens assembly to the selected opening, and position the magnetic switch where it can be activated through the shell. Installation requirements vary by locomotive, and some modification of the model may be required.
