This one is pretty small. SDXN147PS N Scale Series 7 Sound Decoder https://www.digitrax.com/products/sound-decoders/sdxn147ps/

I don't think DCC is a simpler or easier "mechanical build" You still have to connect a machine to the turnout.

AS the professor wrote... "Most all DCC decoders are dual capable, DCC and DC.." But to check the status you need a DCC decoder. Most decoders come preset to address 3, and DC (analog mode) enabled. I you buy something used, it may have been changed. I turn all of my decoders DC (analog mode)...

Most folks call them horn-hook couplers. And yours are broken or modified to remove the pin that sticks down for uncoupling. You should keep all couplers the same so they can hook up. If you have "no intention of replacing all of my couplers", the OK.

Let's see a picture of motor. If it looks like this it is a simple job to isolate the motor...

First check if it derails at the same spot each time. Trackwork needs to be near perfect if 18" radius curves.

Are you going to cover up the rear steps on the calf?

I'd say, if your entire layout, scenery, locos, rolling stock and electronics is perfect, then go ahead with the design.:)

You do not need a road. There are many off-road instances of utility pole routing. Especially in rural areas https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/d/d8/Looking_south_at_power_poles%2C_Gibraltar_Farm_-_geograph.org.uk_-_1559071.jpg
