Taking on a potentially very large batch of locomotives and converting them to DCC is a project not for the poor and faint of heart.If the "Friend" does not have any DCC equiptment at all... it is a safe bet that you might find yourself in a sort of a money pit.If all of those engines are already equippted with DCC etc.. well... one can dream. Keep in mind that all DCC does is throw switches, call locomotives by name, helps run several locomotives as a single team, auto reverses etc... all under a logic system.DC still has it's benefits, such as cost but is rapidly being eroded by falling prices and improving quality of DCC systems in GENERAL...Personally, I have both DC and DCC. But when it is showtime, DCC is on the bubble, not the DC. The DC stuff is strictly for testing guniea pigs.. err.. looking for problems.
