QUOTE (TheThing @ 3 Apr 2008, 15:39) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>Is it possible to convert DC to DCC at a later date? As I understand it, you just need to change the controller to a DCC one and then add chips to the locomotives. Is it as simple as that? Is adding chips to locos a fairly straight forward task?
Thanks,

Hi Hugh,
Yes, and yes.
You can convert to DCC at any stage but sooner is better since there might be things that one must consider when building a DCC layout. And yes, it is easy to put decoders into stuff (not only locomotives), just requires some soldering skills in some cases.
