I just read yet another MTH rumor on the Train Orders forums.  The latest is that MTH is communicating that the DCC upgrade to the DCS converters will be coming soon.  They said the same thing 6 months ago.  Not holding my breath, just passing on the rumor is out there again.  Don't throw anything please, I'm just the messenger. Big Smile

Here's the text from the post on the TO Site. Funny that the rumor is almost identical to the one they floated in January.  Also Note it only includes the SD70 and no mention of the others.

"I have just received an important communication from MTH.

MTH is still working on the DCC software upgrade for the SD70ACe that will make it a standard DCC locomotive and support advance consisting. The release of the software is later than they planned but they are much closer now. MTH reaffirmed its support for the HO market and increased DCC compatibility. In the near future all MTH locomotives will be much more DCC compliant. "

This is great news as MTH is making some very high quality locomotives.
