Aside from rain and tornados like those in Birmingham, DCC should be fine indoors or out, with the same the same problems of having sufficient power feeds to the track for both power and signaling to the loco's. Post pictures of the "Empire in the great outdoors"!

Does anyone know how well DCC fairs outside. I want to run my H.O. railway around my garden on stilts, not at ground level, sometime in the not too distant future and as I use DCC, I would like know if anyone on these forums has done the same. As I live in U.K. the weather here are somewhat more temperate than in some other parts , particularly in the U.S. We get cold , but not extreme , we have warm but again rarely hot . Any thoughts would be appreciated CPPedler
