Having a DCC _socket_ (since the plug is already fitted on the decoder lead!) is not a 'buying' issue. <br />'Space' - being the availability of a suitably-sized void - is more my concern, especially now given than I've taken up N scale modelling (to help my 14y.o. son out). <br /> <br /> <br />In fact, if there is complete compatibility running DCC-fitted stock on 'standard' DC systems, including those employing through-the-track constant lighting systems, the next evolution in manufacturing may see all new DC-motored locos sold with DCC as standard, just as you can't buy a new TV without a remote control (and there is bigger analogy there than you may have imagined...). <br />If this state was ever to occur, I would still like to see a standard dimensional package determined to allow people the opportunity to replace/upgrade with decoders of their own choosing. <br /> <br />Regards, <br /> <br />Steve <br /> <br />
