My club is looking at getting into DCC
Currently, we normally setup a typical NTRAK layout with about 14 4' modules and corners
We are trying to figure out what the best DCC system would be for our needs, whether we go Digitrax, MRC, etc
We realize the members will have to add chips to their engines at their own cost. Some members have even mentioned purchasing their own throttles (at least those that don't have DCC at home yet)
Over the course of the next couple months, we will be upgrading wiring on club owned modules and it has been strongly encouraged to the members to do so on their own modules as well. It has been suggested to upgrade to the NTRAK Recommended Practice 2005 - Anderson PowerPoles.
If anyone has any thoughts, I'd like to hear them. And if anyone has any tips or tricks that might make the installation simpler, please please please let me know.
