Do you mean switch to DCC? If you hardly ever run a train or indulge into complex switching operation, involving more than one loco, there is not much of a reason to switch to DCC, as you apparently don´t need the virtues of this system. DCC minimizes the wiring effort, can improve a loco´s performance (but not beyond the mechanism´s abilities) and allows for sound, which still is a little uncomfortable on DC operated layouts. The basic difference between DC and DCC is that with DC you control the track power and with DCC you control the loco. From your description of operation, I´d say you don´t need that.
