This week’s selection is “More Intermediate Arduino and 3D Print Model Railroad Projects” by Paul and David Bradt. This book focuses on electronics, but also on 3D printing. While many 3D printer ...

There are many ways to use an Arduino on a model railroad. These tiny, inexpensive, programmable computers can perform functions such as controlling signals, routing turnouts, and running animations.

The project is at an early stage – thus far, laying out how to set up an Arduino Uno using a potentiometer to control the speed of a stepper motor, which rotates the turntable.

A simple Arduino model train control (DCC) system acts as a command station to control DCC decoders. This project adapted Michael Blank's program code for signal generation. The original program ...

So you've already outgrown Arduino's most beginner-friendly board, the Uno, and are looking to move on to bigger, more exciting projects.In that case, the Nano family might just be what you need ...
