Are these the really cheap Bachmann toy train set engines or the better Spectrum models?  That is going to make a world of difference in whether or not they can be or are worth trying to convert to DCC.

If they're the cheap Bachmann toy train locomotives a decoder would cost more than any of them are worth.
