I know I'm going to get slammed

Rangerover2: Welcome! <br />I think you'll find that your Bachmann EZ Command system will work well while you are learning about DCC, but you will outgrow it soon enough. For the price, I would say it's a relatively inexpensive lesson in the ins and outs of DCC. <br />Like you, I returned to the hobby after a long hiatus. I pulled my stuff out of the shed about a year ago, and have since purchased an MRC Prodigy Advance DCC system, three sound equipped Challengers, A BLI Sound Equipped NW2 Switcher, Two Rivarossi 4-8-4 Locomotives into which I am installing DCC decoders with sound, about 5 Proto 2K locomotives that I am converting to DCC, A Bachmann Shay into which I am installing a sound decoder, and several other decoders for my other equipment. Your foray into DCC should be much less expensive than mine, to say the least. The main rule to remember is to have fun, which doesn't have to cost an arm and a leg (though I've spent that lately and am having fun)! <br />There was another fellow who joined this forum around the same time I did late last year, and he was new to the hobby. Now he has nearly 3000 posts on this forum and is giving advice to others and keeping things here very interesting. He goes by the name of Spacemouse and is a great guy to get to know. His experiences on this forum have been educational to nearly everyone here, at least that's how it looks from my point of view. You will have a great time getting to know the folks here and relearning about the hobby! <br /> <br />Again, [#welcome][#welcome][#welcome][#welcome][#welcome]
