Dave, <br />Wholesale trains (wholesaletrains.com) lists the Bachmann DCC as a pre-order for $53, but I e-mailed them yesterday and they informed me that they have them in stock. They also have the sets with one decoder equipped loco (you cannot remove the decoder, and they look like Bachmann standard line locos) for $79. I am still trying to find out what else the thing is capable of. people have mentioned it is low in power (1 amp?) but it is made by Lenz, so maybe Lenz boosters will work. I am ordering one as my entry level DCC. I don't know much about DCC, so this will start the education. I don't plan on running more than 2 or 3 locos at a time for now, so it may be just what I need. I think it's just like everything else. Start out small, and trade in or trade up later, if the need arises.
