It can be done. That's what I wanted to do with all my TMCC locos. About 10 of them,,,However, The TMCC requires AC power at 60khz and this requires a miniature DC to AC inverter to convert the battery power to AC and I cannot find anything miniaturized and ready to go. I would probably have to have an engineer design one and have it built for me. I'll be selling my Tmcc units shortly. The conversion costs to RC are about $200 per loco with sound.
