[quote user="Master of Big Sky Blue"]...Also in keeping of pinching pennies. I decided with the massive roster that I have. That I can not afford to convert over to DCC. I already have a fully capable DC control system waiting to be assembled, and I can not justify expensive high tech gismo and gadgetry that costs lots and lots of money to just even get used. I would need an additional $500 or so in extra components just to even Install the DCC hardware, and I havn't even gotten to the cost of converting over 100 locomotives. With DC, I already have all the wiring components on hand, avialable, and paid for. No locomotive conversion necessary, and just like my modeling freind Dan says. You flip the toggle switch, crack the throttle, and the train moves. Good eneugh for me. So I have decided to sell what DCC components I have to a freind and use the proceeds to improve my financial situation. (Read Pay on Credit Card that got maxed out while I looked for work for 6 months)...James[/quote] It's a matter of preferences, perspectives, and perogatives. You would like to keep your massive roster and run DC. I would whittle the roster down to a few 'can't-live-without' locomotives and use that money to convert to DCC. Different strokes...
