How well do these run on a DC layout?

Well I think that ScaleTrains ised LokSound Select decoders and I think those are dual model decoders...

If they have dual mode decoders they will run on DC, though I’ve never done that, so I have no idea how well that will work...

The ScaleTrains website does not say if they are dual mode though, though it also doesn’t say they aren’t...

I really know nothing for certain but perhaps this ‘bump’ to the top will get the attention of more knowledgeable forum members.

Regards, Isaac

Loksound select decoders are dual mode decoders that run on DC and DCC, but require DCC to reach all features. You find more information in the following link:

Happy times!
