I disagree about DCC being expensive. It does have a high startup cost but with DC to acheave the nearly the same results you need extra switchs, control pannels, complicated wiring. All these have to be considered even though they are expendetures that are spread out in time as the layout is built and they involve your time as well as your cash. <br /> <br />Personally I chose to start with a cheap DC power pack to use while I build the basic layout. I am wiring for DCC so for now I am limited to 1 train at a time. That will change after the layout has matured to the point it will benefit from the advantages of DCC.
