DCC Verses Regular DC Operation

Thomas has a question that has been covered several times before on this blog (search DCC on this blog). However, someone might like to make some comment to assist Thomas who asks:

“I have a completed HO layout and considering going to DCC controls what problems will I encounter.”

    ([email protected]) Hi Thomas
    I know you are modeling in HO but go to this web site and see all the additional problems you will have with DCC. I guess by now you figured out I am an old die hard DC operator. True there are a lot of bells and whistles with DCC and some of the same with DC. but I think for the small model RR you dont need the extra problems and aggrevation that will come with it. That being said do what you want to do so as to enjoy it to the full. if you are new to this hobby it would pay for you now before you go any further to purchase Roberts E book to get ALL of you answers to make an educated decision of what to do for the long run.
