Ken,It's a pretty straight-forward concept. You have two wires from your DC transformer connecting to your layout, right? You'll have two wires connecting from your DCC unit, right?They connect in the same place, right?All you have to do is make sure you have one or the other, but not both, active at the same time. You can do it manually, or install a switch to change over. I just did this today with my Atlas track cleaning car, which is not recommended for DCC. I simply disconnected the DCC and hooked up the DC transformer in its place. Two wires, two minutes.Don't let your inventory of engines stop you from playing with DCC. Convert a few and have fun.
