Bachman don't seem great where "DCC Ready" labels are concerned - I've fitted a decoder to one of their Doodlebugs using the socket supplied, but discovered that I had to modify the wiring loom by adding two resistors to stop the lights melting and rewiring the interior light to be controlled on F1. What I don't understand is that there's a spare pin on the plug where the rear headlight would usually connect - if they'd wired the interior light to this I could have done the work using a CV alteration rather than having to break out the soldering iron!
