Union Mills Class Q2 DCC Conversion
Mistakes may damage your locomotive, controller or other accessories. Use a multimeter to make absolutely sure you have completely isolated the motor from the track before testing. Always use the Programming Track for testing. Our guides are provided for reference only, and you proceed entirely at your own risk. Unsure about something - try our DCC Conversion Service instead.
This guide covers the Union Mills Class Q2 models, including:
- Union Mills Class Q2 LNER Black 3454
Most Union Mills locos have the same tender drive arrangement. The photos below show conversion of a Q2 model by mounting a hard-wired ESU LokPilot 5 decoder on top of the motor. For full step-by-step instructions, follow the T9 guide, as the steps are the same.
