I have just rediscoverd my railway lay-out up in the loft ( after a ten year break.) I am now cleaning up the track and intend to convert to dcc. My question is, what is involved in converting locos and what are the pitfalls ?

Hi Dennis & welcome to MRF.

Use the search facility to gain an insight into DCC & conversions - some locomotives are easy, some not, but virtually all can be converted.

Hi dennis1

Welcome to the forum

Along with your search on the the forum excellent advice from Brian here is a video with the principals of fitting a decoder .... locos do vary in complexity though, a good starting point for reference at your library or to buy is
