I (re)started my N-scale layout after many years of being off-line. I went for the MRC Prodigy system and I am VERY happy. It works well, allows you to also run accessories (i.e. turnouts, building lights, etc) from the same "brain" unit. You do need different controllers for some of the different options. I would say I've spen around $500 for the system, extra handhelds and enough accessory decoders to work all the turnouts (12 or so) as well as a few decoders for the trains. I've been using the Digitrax decoders, as they are easy to install. I have a few wierd problems, like some of the loco's continuing to respond to the DCC comands even after another loco is selected. I chalk it up to my own learning curve. <br /> <br />Good luck!
