Week1 Narrative
Over the weekend, I researched how the locomotive for HO scale trains operate. Essentially, electricity travels from the power pack to the rails, where the metal wheels or metal frame transfer it to an electric motor. The motor is connected to a gear system so that as it turns, the wheels of the train turn. Based on which rail the current travels through changes which direction the train moves.

In addition I researched how an electric motor works for both DC and AC circuits. I felt this was a necessary first step because I have no technical experience at all and need to understand this concept. The movement of the train, as well as the movement of a possible turntable to be used for organizing the trains, operate utilizing DC motors.
