Convert an AC model To DC?
#2
I think in addition to the AC uninsulated wheelsets, you've got a problem with the wheel profile -- some of the German guys on this board can probably speak to this, but I'm not sure if the Maerklin wheels are even compatible with US code 100 track. I've heard Maerklin motors will run on DC, but you'd have an additional issue with any DCC conversion. You mention the idea of getting an Atlas mechanism -- would there be a potential for just chucking the whole Maerklin chassis, dremeling out the body, and just putting the Maerklin body on the Atlas mech?
