Bachmann DCC
Posted by Anonymous on Friday, July 16, 2004 9:47 AM
Does anyone have any information on the new Bachmann EZ DCC system?
When will it be released? How much will it cost?

EasyDCC is the brand name for the DCC system from CVP products. Is EZ DCC a new product from Bachman? If so, that's coming mighty close to stepping on the name of someone else's product.

Sorry the name is EZ Command DCC. It's made by Lenz for or with Bachmann.

According to Bach-Man over on Bachmann's website, they're expected to be release in August of this year.

WholesaleTrains has them cheaper than Walthers on Preorder. Even have the locos with the decoders already installed too.

Maybe we will be fortunate enough to get a review from a magazine soon? I kind of doubt it, though, as most items I see reviewed in magazines (most magazines, not just Model RR) are usually mid to high end stuff, and rarely the economy products. What amazes me is the package with the loco and decoder. You pay for the decoder, and they give you a loco and install it too. May not be a great loco, but it would make a great test piece for new track and electrical work.
