Electronic Devices
Most RAM Track products are adaptable to all popular scales, N through G. Some
are more scale specific due to bulb or speaker size limitations. Our products
have an established reputation for innovation and dollar value. All RAM Track
products are made in the U.S.A
LED** & CLASSIC INCANDESCENT LIGHTING SYSTEMS
RAM Track introduced white LEDs to the hobby industry in 1998. Since that time
we have produced thousands of systems that have set the standard for high brightness,
long life and low current drain. The standard track power sets will safely handle
up to 12 volts DC, common for most models and power from on board DCC circuits.
High voltage sets are produced for G scale, direct to rail DCC and other applications
where up to 24 volts may be applied. The use of 3MM or 5MM LEDs and additional
clear or colored lense caps provides ultimate adaptability to space and scale
requirements of individual models. RAM 101 Lite Pipe fiber optics can be used
with any of the LED systems.

SOUND DEVICES
RAM Track manufacturers both analogue (51, 52, 53, 54) and digital (**)
sound devices in order to provide accurate sounds and good dollar value. The
analogue systems are supplied with scale appropriate, sized speakers. All of
the acoustically recorded, digital systems are supplied with a 2" speaker
which can be replaced by the modeler with a 1 " speaker for on board HO
use. On board sounds ("0B") are the sounds that should be heard from
the model in motion. Trackside ("T") sounds give that final touch
of realism as the train moves past various buildings and scenery on your layout.
