The Digitrax LNC82 is a 2-pack of 8-foot LocoNet cables — the standard RJ12 6-conductor cables you need to wire up a Digitrax DCC system. Use them to connect throttles to UP5 panels, link LocoNet peripherals (BDL16, BDL168, DS64, etc.), or extend a LocoNet bus across your layout. Two cables in every package. Looking for more DCC wiring and accessories? Browse our Electronics & Wiring and DCC Decoders collections. Features 2 cables per package — 8 feet long each. RJ12 6-position / 6-conductor (6P6C) plugs on both ends — matches every Digitrax LocoNet jack. Flat ribbon cable construction — runs neatly along benchwork edges. Works with all Digitrax DCC systems — Zephyr, Super Empire Builder, Super Chief, DCS210, DCS240, etc. Length sufficient for typical throttle-to-panel runs and panel-to-panel hops on home layouts. More Information Brand Digitrax Item Number LNC82 Type LocoNet cable — RJ12 6P6C Length 8 feet each Quantity 2 cables per pack Plug RJ12 6-position 6-conductor (6P6C) on both ends System Digitrax LocoNet Condition New — sealed UPC 652667180061 FAQ Are these standard phone cables?They look similar, but Digitrax LocoNet uses 6-position 6-conductor (6P6C) wiring, not the 6P4C found in many phone cables. Use these LocoNet-spec cables to avoid wiring issues — or any high-quality 6P6C cable will work. What can I connect with them?Throttles to UP5/UP6 plug-in panels, BDL16/BDL168 detection boards to the LocoNet bus, DS64 stationary decoders, SE8C signal decoders, PR4 USB interfaces, and any other LocoNet peripheral. Will 8 feet be long enough?For most home layouts, yes — 8 feet covers a typical throttle reach from one UP5 panel to another. For larger layouts you may need longer cables (Digitrax LNC25 is 25 ft) or chain multiple LNC82s through UP panels. Do they work with non-Digitrax DCC systems?No — LocoNet is Digitrax's proprietary throttle bus. NCE, MRC, and other DCC systems use different cab buses and connectors.

Bring a piece of railroad heritage to your N scale layout with this Kato GE ES44AC GEVO in CSX Transportation's blue and yellow Boxcar Logo livery as #5327 — featuring the distinctive Western Maryland Sticker that pays tribute to one of CSX's predecessor railroads. The prototype has been in service across North America since 2003 — a 4,400-horsepower AC-traction freight workhorse you'd see on the head end of any modern intermodal, coal, or general freight consist. Kato's signature smooth, quiet running and tight tolerances are all here: a five-pole motor with dual flywheels, directional LED headlights, all-wheel drive and pickup, blackened low-profile wheels for Code 55 or larger rail, and Kato's reliable knuckle couplers. This is the Standard DC version — DCC-ready by swapping the lighting board for the decoder of your choice (sold separately). Looking for more N scale locomotives and rolling stock?

The Western Maryland Railway was absorbed into CSX's lineage through the Chessie System merger, and CSX added the WM logo as a small heritage tribute on selected units like #5327. Is this DCC-equipped?No, this is the Standard DC version. It's DCC-ready — Kato uses a swappable lighting board so you can drop in your preferred decoder without hardwiring. Will it run on Code 55 track?Yes. The wheels are low-profile and blackened, so they roll cleanly on Code 55, Code 70, and Code 80 rail. Does it have sound?No, this is a non-sound DC version. For sound, use a sound-equipped DCC decoder (sold separately) or a Kato 176-8962-S release.
