DCC is outstanding. I use the Digitrax Super Empire Builder. One of the best reasons I like it because I can control the turnouts on my cab. I am using DS44 Stationery decoders to operate the turnouts. Each decoder will operate 4 turnouts and work great with Tortoises. The other obvious benefit is running several locos on the layout. So many new locos are available (Atlas Master Series) with decoders already installed. They work fine with most systems. Other locos that are DCC Ready will require you to pop of the shell and simply plug in a decoder of your choice. I started out with a two function decoder (power and lights). Now I am into more functions like sound - and this is where the real fun begins! Go DCC - it's the latest method and I think it's the best. I also think the Digitrax Zephyer is a good system to start and grow with. DOG
