well it won't blow the bulbs out, but the life expectancy goes down. you have few options available: 1) run the DCC system at a lower Voltage output (can work but on more intense layouts not good) 2) can install a voltage regulator in the passenger cars to keep the volatage low to the lights. 3) install LED lights in the cars (haven't tried this so don't ask me how they look) LED's can handle (and are designed for) higher voltage opterations, so they will perform just fine on DCC.
