I have been out of the hobby for 20+ years. My nickel silver track work has been setting idle for all those years, and the complex wiring was never completed. DCC seemed the way to go to avoid all the complex wiring. Also, my grandson got out some of my old locos to look at them. I was afraid at first to let him handle them. Then, on closer look and after attempts to run them on a short piece of track, I came to the conclusion that most of them are now ready for the junk yard. <br />I am assuming that all of my old loco's (if any are worth saving) would have to be hand wired to run DCC? I only have one (Bachman Doodlebug given to me a few years ago as a gift) which has a plug and play board inside. I was looking at the MRC DCC systems, since I am familiar with the name and the digital controller is reasonably priced at some of the discount house. Would this be the way to go?
