As cited in the previous posts, converting a conventional K-Line engine to LC is doable. You would need to purchase a Lionel universal LC controller for operation. An alternative is to use one of the many available wireless control systems which use a smart device app for control which would mean no additional controller cost. Many of these other systems have extensive sound libraries and good lighting effects. Also, the systems that involve DCC have extensive engine motion control capabilities. The amount of retrofit installation work is approximately the same as for LC.
