I admit that I am a stubborn Analog person. However I was introduced to DCC and find the Zepheyr and other Digitrak systems very nice. The costs of retrofitting my engines has me kind of "stumped" but as one on a budget, I think one or two a year would eventually get them all converted. Dont forget N scale decoders for really tight spaces. And keep in mind that two DCC engines in a single section of reverse loop track probably will cause the computer to choose which engine to kick out. I am NOT an expert on DCC, I have seen a few instances of it working at my LHS and a friends layout and of course some engines in my fleet have it. I do know that I would like to retrofit all my engines with at least sound. What I dont yet know is the cost? Is it better to buy a Sound unit then DCC unit later? or a all-in -one? Good Luck in your rejoining the hobby! Lee
