<p>Jeff, don't you know that running a DC locomotive under DCC is WRONG! Stop before you are hit with a bolt of lightning. Besides, once you "go DCC" you aren't even supposed to HAVE any DC locomotives. ALL your fleet must be DCC now. And so it was written. And, to top it off, you don't REALLY have DCC, you have a Bachmann!! So it DOESN'T COUNT!!</p><p>Just a side note, I once let one of my Bachmann engines idle all night (forgot to turn the power off). Didn't seem to hurt it. The only one I ever hurt was that little (N scale) Galloping Goose by Con Cor. First symptom, it STANK (melting rubber/plastic smell). A few engines won't run at all under DC over DCC. Most run fine. Some will burn up. All depends. Not sure why all the differences, must be different engine designs. </p>
