DCC decoders for my engines?

If an engine is "DCC Ready", it has a standard socket that any plug-in decoder from any of the vendors will work with. Most of the DCC vendors also make "plug and play" decoders that work with particular models or brands -- for example, Digitrax has a decoder that pretty much drops into models based on the Kato engines, such as the Stewart F-units and older Atlas engines. They also have one that goes into old Athern engines pretty easily. <br /> <br />Loy's Toys is a good source for DCC info; so is Tony's Train Exchange. And all the DCC manufacturers have manuals and extensive info about their decoders on their websites. And many of the loco vendors have info on converting their older engines on their websites now, too. So the info is out there, just not necessarily all in one place. [:D]
