To Gary and anyone else who is thinking of taking the lunge into DCC
There is a lot of technical garbage quoted on many Model Railway Forums which can and should be totally ignored. You buy the system that does the job you want done. If you have a train set style layout with 2 or 3 loops, perhaps a couple of sidings and 4 or 5 locos then the chioce is Bachmann or Hornby. If you need more functions then go to your local model railway shop and ask them to show you Lenz, Gaugemaster, Digitrax etc.
You don't need to know how electronic ignition and fuel injection work on a car before you buy one, only how many miles per gallon it does and how fast it goes.
Please don't be put off by the technical stuf just accept it works out of the box, is simple to install and cheap to buy.
