To have custom PCBs made to your own design like the ones I use to control Asymmetric Braking under DCC, see my channel sponsor, PCBWay: [https://www.pcbway.com/setinvite.aspx?inviteid=571307] In this video I wire an Electrofrog diamond as part of a Double Junction for DCC with support for block detection and asymmetric braking. This junction is at the back of the layout hidden in a tunnel, and forms one of the two ways that trains can get between the storage yard and the scenic part of the layout.
