Hi Bernhard,
You do fabulous work regardless of the state of your shop!
I have a Lambert brass Mack Railbus that one DCC guru at our club has said is impossible to convert to DCC due to the configuration of the motor and power pick-ups. However, it must be possible, as I have seen one done (no idea who did it so I cannot ask...
).
I'd appreciate your opinion. Here it is:

If you are not familiar with the configuration, I will take some more photos and post them. The motor is under the floor, the pick-ups are from the rear wheels only and are very short and tight, and pretty much integrated with the motor.
Thanks!
Andrew
