I currently have a part-time HO layout that I goof around with. I am really intrigued by DCC, but is it worth it for a small, one-locomotive (at least right now) operation? My current power supply (MRC Tech II) has momentum, but it seems to be designed to model a much longer train that I usually set up. It also seems that the control has to be at about 40% before locomotive movement. Things I can see doing with DCC include: - Setting the starting voltage to get full use of the speed range - Lights - Momentum to more-closely match my perception of reality What else can I use to help justify the expense in my own mind?
