DCC Licensing Program:
Here’s a copy of the DCC handout we prepared for the YMR members on DCC.

YMR Modules:
Here are the original plans for the YMR modules
YMR Standard Straight Module Plans
YMR Standard Corner Module Plans
NOTE: When you wire these modules, make sure you allow for the wiring harness to swap end for end. There has been some confusion about which end goes to which side of the module. So if you make it easy to swap it will help greatly at shows.
Erich has been working on a plywood version of the YMR module design that features a foam-based insert for the layout that can be replaced if the kids want to try different ideas out without having to build a whole new module.
If you have any interest in these designs, please contact erich@hbeng.com.
