DC/DCC
Posted by Mr Mekanik on Friday, April 30, 2004 8:40 PM
15 years have past since I ran my HO trains, yes they all run good. My question is this. I seen ads about locos that are DCC ready and some that say locos can be run on DC or DCC (analog or digital). I know you need different power supply and/or transformers to control locos speed. If you have a DCC ready can it be run on a DC track without damage? Do you need to install a decoder on a DCC ready loco?
Any info will be apreciated.
Thanks and "STAY ON THE TRACKS"

Mr Mekanik:

I suggest you post your question on the Model Railroader forum. This forum is geared toward O gauge toy trains that run on AC. You'll have a much better chance of having your question answered over there.
