Title: Spectrum N Scale Diesel GE Dash 8-40C DCC Ready Norfolk Southern 85055
Post by: Dannyboy on December 13, 2011, 08:33:55 AM
Hey there Bach-man,

What DCC decoder works best and is easiest to install in this loco? Also, can you point me to installation instructions for installation for your suggested decoder?

Thanks!

Dannyboy

Hi!

A DZ125 is cheap and is doing a great job!

The DCC ready locos are easy to convert, just follow the manual instructions.
Here is a spectrum SD45 example:
