Introducing the Accutrack II Model Train Speedometer
>>>>>>
Note: This is a portable, stand-alone speed detection device. It works with DC or DCC layouts. It works with any DCC system since they are not connected in any way.

Model Railroad Technologies is please to announce the development of the Accutrack II Speedometer for measuring scale speeds of model railroad locomotives and trains.
The Accutrack II includes several features not present in the original Accutrack Speedometer. We have listened to customer and dealer input and have incorporated the most desired new features and functions. Although several small changes have been made in the nearly 10 years that the Accutrack has been on the market, no major redesign has been done up until now.
These new features include:
Clearance for HO scale AutoMax cars and double stacks with high box containers. Several modelers running modern equipment could not run their AutoMax equipped trains through the existing model. With the Accutrack II they can! (see photo).
The addition of OO (4mm) and N Gauge (9mm) to the existing HO (1:87) and N scale (1:160) settings.
The addition of Kilometers per hour (KPH) as a unit of measure for all included scales.
Scale selection includes the ability to select each of the included scales with measurement displayed in either miles per hour (MPH) or kilometers per hour (KPH).
Display resolution is:
- .1 mph/kph up to 10
- 1 mph/kph for 10 and above
Adjustable automatic Power Down time. Originally limited to powering down after 5 minutes of no train activity, this time period is now adjustable from 1 minute to 30 minutes. The power down feature can also be disabled completely, if desired, but re-enabled as desired.
We believer that these new features, coupled with the simple, no installation setup of the original Accutrack, will add to the enjoyment of serious model railroaders, whatever their interest.
