It's a good idea to choose a standard and the stick to it, especially if you have a lots of locos and/or guest operators.
In my case all my locos are steam, so it's easy to decide which end is the front. Despite that, at least one "DCC Ready" loco went the wrong way, after initial installation of a decoder using the installed socket. Obviously the DCC socket had been wired up the wrong way.
I only had to change a setting in CV29 and it worked correctly. That's one of the advantanges of DCC. You don't have to re-solder the connections if you, or the manufacturer, make a mistake
