As much as I bemoan the proprietary systems we have in O-gauge, it’s unlikely that people will opt to replace all of the electronics in their fleets of locomotives.

I'm doing it, decoders are available and cheap compared to ERR or DCS kits, the DCC control system was also readily available and cost less than Legacy or DCS. My fleet is only a dozen loco's so cost is not prohibitive. And PS3 loco's are DCC compatible, too bad Lionel didn't do the same ( as they did with S scale). One can only hope the madness will end and parts can be had again, but I'm future proofing my fleet now, don't feel like waiting anymore.
