AC/DC Conversion

A reader has an AC/DC question for those in the know and asks:

“I have two s gauge diesel locomotives from American Models that are AC powered. I want to convert them to DC power, but don’t know where to start after I remove the electronic reverse unit from the wiring on these. One is a GP-35, and the other one is a SD-60. I plan on installing Digitrax DCC to run them more like the real train. Can someone assist please?”
