Ed:I made the switch to DCC about two years ago and will never look back. Of course, paying almost $300 for a single locomotive is often a bit hard to swallow, but I guess it's on par with the price of all model railroad equipment these days and the continuing decline in the value of our dollar. $30-$40 for a single car? Ouch!
----------------------------------------------------
I went DCC for awhile and returned to DC..Now I use a dual mode MRC Tech 6 which gives me the opportunity to run my DCC/Sound locomotive or my DC locomotives.
But wait there's more..
By plugging in my Tech 6 handheld throttle I can run up to 6 DCC engines or one DC engine..
That fits my needs to a "T" and cost less then $120.00..
