Mark you say you just switched to DCC and a NCE system... Why would you do that?

Sam,

The main reason that I'm doing the switch to DCC is so that I can run the Broadway Limited Y6B's due out in the next month or so. They are DCC only.

Also, when I reverse the locomotives on the turntable under DCS, They get confused and won't go forward or backward until I restart them. Not a deal breaker, but they work correctly under DCC in this instance.

The DCC system that I was referring too is not expensive and is a complete system with power supply and a nice throttle. MTH has done such a good job mapping the functions to DCC that I didn't lose any functionality in the switch.

Mark.
