I have converted quite a few old and new Athearn locomotives to DCC. The process is simple if you follow the wiring guidelines, especially isolating the motor. I would suggest Lenz or TCS decoders if you're starting out because they have a "goof-proof" warranty. The premium loco are great, but if you already have a fleet, you're not likely to want to scrap them all and buy new ones. Good luck. Davie
